Our Approach
CPD works across the entire livestock value chain building resilience for pastoralists against climate shocks and market volatility.
How We Work
- One Health Surveillance: Lead regional early warning systems with 650+ Community-Based Animal Health Workers providing real-time outbreak reporting.
- Breed Improvement: Introduce high-yield, climate-resilient cattle and goat breeds increasing milk production by 2–3×.
- Livestock Insurance: Provide index-based insurance to 6,000+ pastoralists reducing asset losses by up to 70% during droughts.
- Poultry Development: Established 300+ women-led cooperatives and trained 2,400 households.
- Value Addition & Markets: Pilot milk collection centers and link producers to Gulf-based buyers.
- Policy Engagement: Support the National Livestock Sector Development Strategy (2024–2030).
Where We Work
- Somalia: Puntland, Galmudug, Hirshabelle, South West, and Jubbaland States reaching pastoralists and agropastoralists in transition zones.
Our Goal
Build a resilient, productive, and inclusive livestock sector that protects pastoralist livelihoods and unlocks Somalia’s livestock economy.
