Book (stand-alone)Guide for the design and implementation of public–private partnerships for agribusiness development in Africa 2024
Also available in:
Unleashing the potential for inclusive agricultural growth and transformation in Africa requires coordinated and strategic public and private investment in the agriculture sector. Against a background of limited government resources and expertise, public–private partnerships are increasingly being promoted as a mechanism to pool resources, reduce risk, improve productivity and drive growth in the agriculture and food sectors. In line with this trend, many African countries have recently expressed an interest in further understanding the potential for public–private partnerships for agribusiness development (agri-PPPs) to deliver on these transformative goals. This publication aims to provide guidance to African policymakers and potential private sector investors on the core principles of designing and implementing agri-PPPs that will promote the transformation of Africa’s agriculture sector in an inclusive and sustainable way. This area of work is of particular interest to the African Union Commission (AUC) which has highlighted agri-PPPs as a key tool in the delivery of the results under the Comprehensive Africa Agricultural Development Programme (CAADP) and the Malabo Declaration on Accelerated Agricultural Growth for Shared Prosperity and Livelihoods. -

No results found.The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) leads international efforts to defeat hunger and mitigate poverty by helping developing countries and countries in transition to modernize and improve their agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and to ensure food and nutrition security for all. Furthermore, as stressed by FAO, improving policy coherence between employment and agricultural initiatives and investing more in the promotion of decent rural employment make a si gnificant contribution to the interlinked challenges of fighting rural poverty and feeding a growing – and increasingly young – population in a sustainable way. Achieving food security for all is at the heart of FAO’s mandate and given the prevalence of poverty and food insecurity among rural youth, they have long been a target of FAO’s activities. Furthermore, the Organization has recently strengthened its commitment to rural youth in its new Strategic Framework. This framework focuses FAO’s ef forts and resources on achieving five strategic objectives. Underlying the third strategic objective – reducing rural poverty – is an explicit emphasis on the promotion of decent employment opportunities for rural youth. This reflects the importance that FAO assigns to youth development as a catalyst for reducing poverty and improving food and nutrition security. It also signals FAO’s intent to address youth employment in a comprehensive way, redirecting expertise and efforts throughout the Orga nization.
