Dear Friends,
With your continued support, 2009 was an exciting year of completion of new facilities, continued research and capacity building and expanded possibilities. The Biosciences eastern and central Africa-International Livestock Research Institute (BecA-ILRI) Hub has now supported implementation of research projects and laboratory-based training involving 24 African and a number of non-African countries. Students continued publishing their work, graduating and moving on to higher positions including back home in their national programs. We enhanced our facilities and scientific competencies to better support the region’s growing agricultural research needs in the years ahead. Our increased capacity has been met by tremendous demand from the region and beyond for well-supported, world-class facilities. Researchers from across the continent and around the world are now addressing Africa’s most significant agricultural constraints in our laboratories. BecA-ILRI Hub Annual Letter - 2010
