[CGIAR] The Sustainable Animal Productivity for Livelihoods, Nutrition and Gender inclusion’ (SAPLING) initiative works with sector actors to support sustainable growth of the livestock sector in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). This involves developing market-driven solutions to incentivize small- and medium-scale producers to invest in sustainable productivity and capture growing demand, while enhancing social inclusion, supporting improved nutrition, and contributing to environmental protection.
