Knowledge products emanating from community-based breeding programs are integrated into animal science programs in institutions of higher learning por Belay, Berhanu, Haile, Aynalem, Mourad, Rekik, Getachew, Tesfaye, Rischkowsky, Barbara

“…Despite being launched in 2009 with the collaboration and support of research institutes, livestock extension services, the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), the International Centre for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), and BOKU, the participation of Ethiopian universities in the CBBP was notably lacking, considering their extensive reach across all regions and diverse Agro-ecological settings. The scaling approach initiated based on the framework developed by Mueller et al. (2019) has triggered the engagement of more partners, including universities, in the expansion of sheep and goat CBBPs. …”
