Synopsis (short abstract) These guidelines have been drawn up as part of the AgrInvest-Food Systems Project (AgrInvest-FS), a collaboration between the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM) to promote private investments in African food systems that contribute to sustainable development objectives. The purpose of these guidelines is to serve as a reference and provide practical country-customized guidance to foster sustainable investments in agrifood systems in the four African countries covered by the AgrInvest-FS project of FAO-ECDPM.

    This technical note was written by the European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM) as part of the project “AgrInvest-Food Systems: Enabling inclusive and efficient private sector investment in agri-food systems”, implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in partnership with the ECDPM. The AgrInvest-Food Systems Project (AgrInvest-FS) aims at attracting private investment into agrifood systems aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by leveraging public funds. The note applies a systematic approach to the five agrivalue chains over the four countries covered in the AgrInvest-FS project, to identify relevant financing instruments and relevant types of financing institutions, which could potentially be interested in financing a segment of the value chain.

    This publication was written by the European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM) as part of the project “AgrInvest-Food Systems: Enabling inclusive and efficient private sector investment in agrifood systems”, implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in partnership with the ECDPM. The paper presents the methodology, and related lessons, that emerged from the AgrInvest-FS project to promote private investment into food systems aligned with the SDGs, by applying a fully-fledged food systems approach to value chain investment processes and by leveraging public funds and blended finance. In five stages, the use of this Methodology can lead to the launch of policy packages, inclusive multi-actor platforms, and funding opportunities, for effectively scaling up the quantity and quality of finance for sustainable food systems, with a focus on access to finance for local food system actors (SMEs, smallholder farmers, women) and local financial intermediaries.
