RBM

The Billital Maroobé Network (Réseau Billital Maroobé, or RBM) is a network of livestock farmers and herders in West Africa, founded in 2003 by three livestock-farmer organisations: CRUS (Burkina Faso), TASSAGHT (Mali) and AREN (Niger). RBM defends the interests of its members. Its goal is to secure the pastoral economy by encouraging and supporting initiatives to group together and adopt technical innovations, while working to restore the balance between ecology and herd numbers.

RBM has several branches: Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Chad and Togo.
