The EAC Partner States’ Ministries responsible for Animal Resources and National Statistics have been called upon to strengthen their collaboration in order to enhance animal resources data management within the region.

The call was made during the meeting of Experts on Animal Data and Animal Resources Information System (ARIS 2) that concluded over the week end in Kampala, Uganda. Experts from the EAC Partner States line Ministries responsible for Animal Health and Production, Fisheries Development, Trade and EAC Affairs attended the meeting.

The five-day meeting recommended to the EAC Sectoral Council on Agriculture and Food Security to urge all the five Partner States to immediately initiate the use of ARIS 2. A Technical Working Group on animal resources data should also be established at National and Regional levels and the draft Terms of Reference adopted.

The meeting urged the Fisheries sector to review and update its ARIS 2 modules; and  urged the Livestock Data Innovation Project in Africa to expand its coverage to all the remaining EAC Partner States of Burundi, Kenya and Rwanda to support improvement of livestock data collection in its 2nd phase of the Project.
