Innovation in Livestock Systems Process of creating and using knowledge in new ways to enhance livelihoods of livestock dependent poor people Defining Innovation in ILRI’s context.. How do we add value? Work with ILRI themes and partners to enhance effectiveness of linkages between outputs and developmental outcomes -Situate projects in a broader context and considering longer term consequences - Faster - Relevant and inclusive - Cost effective - Greater impact Provide empirical evidence on best practices to link outputs to outcomes Changing livestock systems Changing challenges for livestock-dependent poor Need for enhanced ability to respond and innovate through use of knowledge Characterization of livestock innovation context Policy &Institutional environment for livestock innovation What kind of policies and institutional arrangements exist? What changes will support pro-poor livestock innovation? What drives innovation? Actors, linkages & institutional arrangements Entry points & options for delivering science Pro-poor Institutional & organizational innovations for livestock systems Which institutional and organizational interventions will help improve productivity, deliver services, enhance participation in markets and, manage risks of poor livestock keepers Principles: Rigour through use of robust research methods, approaches and, tools Responsive and efficient, problem-solving mode Gender issues integrated Relevant and connected to impact pathways Processes applicable in multiple contexts Nurturing effective partnerships, within ILRI and externally Agile project management Contribute to new thinking Effective communication Resiliency Sustainable Intensification Managed Smallholder Adaptive Livestock System and Development Challenge Pro-poor and Sustainable Development Agenda Diversification and Resilience Market access and incomes Sustainable Productivity Increases Livestock Development Challenges and Supa-Outcomes SPS and Market Access Emerging Diseases Climate change Adaptation Animal Genetic Resources Animal Genetic Resources Vaccines and Diagnostics Vaccines and Diagnostics Breeding strategies Health Feeding strategies Value chains Risk management Current portfolio of TG03 research in relation to ILRI Big issues ILRI Research outputs Developmental outcomes How do we get there? 1.Links between research and non-research actors 2.Enabling policy & institutional changes Focus of the TG03 research work Why innovation ?
