Abstract/Description
The Director General of the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) tells us about the important role of livestock as solutions to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Global Agenda. The Livestock Global Alliance partnered with the International Agri-Food Network and a number of other organizations to host “Agriculture and Food Day to Implement the Sustainable Development Goals”, which was held at the Yale Club in New York City on July 13, 2017. The event raised awareness of the critical need for investment in Goal 2 on ending hunger and its interlinkages with the other SDGs under focus during the High Level Political Forum, held at the United Nations in New York the same week.
