Goals

The Sustainable Animal Agriculture for Developing Countries (SAADC) conference, convened biennially, serves as a distinguished platform through which animal researchers, producers, and policymakers — representing both developing nations and the broader international community — may exchange expertise, share experiences, and cultivate collaborative networks in the advancement of sustainable animal production.

A defining characteristic of recent SAADC conferences is their steadfast commitment to capacity building among young and early-career scientists, with particular emphasis on those from developing countries. This objective is pursued through strategic collaboration with local and international institutions, agencies, and commercial enterprises, which collectively extend partial financial support to facilitate the participation of emerging researchers in the conference.

Conference Theme

“Digital transformation and climate-smart livestock production for sustainable development”
