International Year of Camelids 2024

From alpacas to Bactrian camels, dromedaries, guanacos, llamas, and vicuñas, camelids contribute to food security, nutrition and economic growth as well as holding a strong cultural and social significance for communities across the world.
Camelids play a key role in the culture, economy, food security and livelihoods of communities in Andean highlands and in the arid and semi-arid lands in Africa and Asia, including Indigenous Peoples.
The International Year of Camelids presents a unique opportunity to raise awareness of the role of camelids in building resilience to climate change - particularly in mountains and arid and semi-arid lands.
