Scientist – Livestock GHG MRV and Circular Bioeconomy

The International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) seeks to recruit a Scientist who will lead and contribute to research on the measurement, mitigation and monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from livestock systems, with particular emphasis on enteric methane, manure management, biogas and circular bioeconomy solutions.

ILRI is an international organisation working for better lives and better planet through livestock. ILRI’s mission emphasises the interconnections between people, animals, and the environment, aiming to improve the lives of more than 300 million people in low- and middle-income countries through livestock science that supports equitable and resilient livestock systems, ultimately contributing to food systems transformation with climate and environmental benefits. This mission is delivered through two core strategic objectives: co-designing and deploying sustainable, science-based livestock solutions, and leveraging science to inform and influence policy and investment decisions.

ILRI is a member of the CGIAR, a global research alliance that works to transform food, land and water systems in a climate crisis and is the only CGIAR centre dedicated to addressing multiple development challenges through sustainable livestock solutions.
