ILCA

The International Livestock Centre for Africa (ILCA) was established by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) in 1974. ILCA is an autonomous, nonprofit-making research, training and information Centre with a mandate to improve livestock production throughout sub-Saharan Africa. It is supported by a number of CGIAR members including countries, development banks, international organisations and foundations.

ILCA conducts its own research programme, works closely with national agricultural research systems (NARS) in collaborative research projects and seeks to develop the research capacities of NARS by providing specialised training programmes and a range of information services.
