ProjectSupport for ROPPA in Implementing The United Nations Decade of Family Farming (2019–2028) - TCP/SFW/3803 2024

In West Africa, family farming employs around 62 percent of the workforce, supplying the bulk of agricultural (both unprocessed and processed) products to feed the population and satisfy the agrifood industry’s requirements. However, despite its clear importance, the vital role of family farming in combating poverty and food insecurity is not sufficiently considered in national investment programmes. Hence, in December 2017, the United Nations declared a United Nations Decade of Family Farming (UNDFF 2019–2028) to focus on family farming as a central global priority for ten years. A Global Action Plan was devised to implement the UNDFF. This plan aims to develop practical, coordinated actions to tackle the challenges faced by family farmers, enhance their capacity to invest, and make full use of their contributions. It includes seven pillars designed to provide comprehensive guidance for all stakeholders, including the international community, regional entities, civil society organizations, the private sector, and farmers’ organizations, such as the Network of Peasant and Producers' Organizations of West Africa (ROPPA).
