Dairy Development Forum
On 9 March 2012, the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and Sokoine University of Agriculture researchers together with partners including Irish Aid and International Fund of Agricultural Development (IFAD) held a consultative meeting on the current status of the smallholder dairy value chains in Tanzania and the opportunities for research and development to support its growth for effective poverty reduction.
One outcome was a proposal was to set up a 'Dairy Development Forum' (DDF) to facilitate multi-stakeholder coordination and engagement in the dairy sector. This would build on a long history of efforts to coordinate dairy development.
After further discussion and stakeholder interaction, the DDF was launched on 22 February 2013.
A report of its 2nd and 3rd meeting can be found here
