The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation<\/a>, the UK\u2019s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office and Canada\u2019s International Development Research Centre (IDRC) are investing an initial CAD13.5 million to lead, through IDRC, a fund for climate-smart livestock systems (CSLS) in Africa. The focus of the fund will be to develop new climate-smart livestock technologies and business models to improve animal productivity, promote climate adaptation and lower emission intensity for smallholder livestock farmers in climatic hotspots in Africa.<\/p>\n

The CSLS programming will have two streams of research:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. climate-smart innovations in livestock systems<\/li>\n
  2. delivery models to commercialize and scale mature climate-smart innovations<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The CSLS will be implemented under two main streams, a first cohort of projects dealing with development of climate-smart technologies and innovations and a second one focussing on efficient ways or business models to deliver any scalable mature technologies to the farmers. This call for concept notes is for the climate-smart innovations in livestock systems research stream.<\/p>\n

    Thematic focus areas\u202f<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Four thematic areas have been identified as being research priorities for CSLS program:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. water, pastures and feed management<\/li>\n
    2. Indigenous knowledge systems, climate data and management<\/li>\n
    3. integration of renewable energy \u2014 circular economies<\/li>\n
    4. animal health<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Concept notes will need to be based on addressing one or two of these four themes, demonstrating clear linkages to sustainable and resilient food systems in African climate hotspots.<\/p>\n

      Eligibility<\/strong><\/p>\n

      This call for concept notes is open to consortia led by an African public or private institution. The consortia should be gender-balanced and preferably comprise researchers, farmer organizations, extension services, financial services and women\u2019s and youth groups. Applicants from academia and private and public sector organisations with a strong research focus are eligible for this global call.<\/p>\n
