IGAD region is home to about 17,506,106 camels contributing over 51% of the world population. However, camel potential is affected by among others increased frequency of drought due to climate change, undiagnosed diseases that causes sudden death and other trans-boundary animal diseases like camel pox, pests, limited knowledge and skills on camel husbandry by extension staff and limited value addition on camel milk, meat and hides. Therefore, a two days regional workshop was organized to review the current status of camel production and marketing; good practices and lessons learnt from past investments and challenges that affect the value chain. Workshop participants included veterinary technical personnel from ministries responsible of animal resources, the private sector (milk processors, exporter and association), research institutions (ILRI and KALRO), non-governmental organizations (Mercy Corp, World vision and Save the Children) and (USAID).
