AU-IBAR 2025 Annual Report: Transforming Africa's Animal Resources Sector for Food Security, Livelihoods and Sustainable and Economic Growth AU-IBAR The AU-IBAR 2025 Annual Report provides a results-oriented overview of AU-IBAR’s impact in 2025, highlighting measurable progress across animal health, livestock production, fisheries, and trade. During the year, 15 Member States were supported to strengthen national strategies for the eradication of Peste des Petits Ruminants, while 30 countries were assessed using the PPR Monitoring and Assessment Tool to track progress toward the 2030 eradication target. The report also notes the operationalisation of the African Union Digital One Health Platform, improving data sharing and coordinated responses across sectors. In strengthening animal production systems, over USD 20 million was mobilised through feed and fodder initiatives, with 6 countries implementing data systems to enhance evidence-based livestock planning. In the fisheries sector, 28 countries aligned policies with continental frameworks, and 723 individuals (including 422 women) were trained in governance and aquatic biodiversity conservation. Additionally, AU-IBAR facilitated the development of 62 African positions on global animal health and food safety standards, strengthening the continent’s influence in international decision-making. The report is anchored in high-level continental and global commitments, including Agenda 2063, the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme, the Livestock Development Strategy for Africa, the Policy Framework and Reform Strategy for Fisheries and Aquaculture, the Africa Blue Economy Strategy, and the global PPR eradication target, which collectively guide implementation and align national actions with shared priorities. Overall, these achievements are contributing to enhanced food and nutrition security, strengthened livelihoods, improved animal and public health systems, and increased competitiveness of Africa’s animal resources sector in regional and global markets.
