Centre for Tropical Livestock Genetics and Health (CTLGH) is an international research collective formed as a partnership between the Roslin Institute (with its UK base at the University of Edinburgh), the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), and Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC).
Bringing together a network of world-leading experts from multiple institutions, the Centre is at the forefront of global research in livestock genetics and health, in support of attaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The RJA&HS and JOA are supporting CTLGH to conduct scientific research on dairy cattle genetics and livestock recording to gather data on the most appropriate dairy cattle genetics and systems for Africa.
The Centre maintains a hub in Edinburgh, as well as Nairobi and Addis Ababa through ILRI.
