10th PACE Narrative quarterly report 01/03/03 - 30/04/04.

The operations of the Somali PACE Component are governed by the overall PACE objective aimed at relieving the poverty of those involved in the livestock-farming sector (producers, service providers and consumers) in Africa by improving animal productivity, trade and food security. In Somalia, this entails strengthening of the capacities of livestock owners, traders, public institutions and private sector animal health workers to cooperate for effective delivery of services to improve animal health in order to enhance trade in livestock and livestock products.
