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. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetMatching grant programmes: An effective approach to channel remittances into sustainable investment in agribusiness?
FSN Forum report of activity, No. 177
2023This document summarizes the online consultation “Matching grant programmes: An effective approach to channel remittances into sustainable investment in agribusiness?” held on the FAO Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition (FSN Forum) from 18 February to 15 May 2022. This consultation was organized in the context of FAO’s work on supporting countries in developing evidence-based policies and programmes to support migrants and returnees, and their families, in investing remittances in agribusiness – one example being the pilot project “Promoting Inclusive Economic Growth through Matching Grants”, conducted by ESA in Tajikistan. The consultation’s aim was to help further refine the design of such policies and programmes by gathering input from a wide range of stakeholders on the potential of matching grant programmes (MGPs) to stimulate the investment of remittances in the agricultural sector.
