Introduction and Context

The African Union Inter-African Bureau for Animal Resources (AU-IBAR) is a specialized technical office of the Department Agriculture, Rural Development, Blue Economy and Sustainable Environment (DARBE) of the African Union Commission (AUC). The vision of AU-IBAR is: "An Africa in which animal resources contribute significantly to integration, prosperity and peace". Its Mission is: to provide leadership and integrated support services for the development of animal resources in Africa.

AU-IBAR's Mandate Is To Support And Coordinate The Sustainable Development And Utilization Of Animal Resources (livestock, Fisheries And Wildlife) To Enhance Nutrition And Food Security And Contribute To The Wellbeing And Prosperity Of The People In The Member States Of The AU.

• Pastoralists provide valuable ecosystem services, using indigenous climate adaptive practices on marginal lands, sequestering carbon, and managing water in ASAL regions
• Despite potential benefits, pastoral programs have focused on humanitarian activities instead of integrating pastoralists with livestock markets

However, pastoralists are severely marginalized and disproportionately impacted by climate change. Historic investments, though significant, have had limited impact. Given the increasing demand for livestock products, pressure on natural resources, and climate shocks, AU-IBAR is committed to promoting the adoption of a long-term systems lens and coordinated actions within and across countries and sectors/stakeholders to tailor approaches to pastoral communities and archetypes.
