Capacity building of Mviwata Arusha in entrepreneurship skills (BUS) (17mvi-6678)

Mon, 17 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0200

Most small farmers in Tanzania focus primarily on self-sufficiency and use traditional agronomic practices. Market-oriented action, individual positioning or meaningful collaborations are often lacking. One reason is that there is often little access to information and a lack of skills.
MVIWATA-Arusha is the network of farmer groups in Arusha region and it works on exactly those issues. MVIWATA-Arusha unites farmers, improves access to information, provides training and defends the interests of the small-scale farmer in general.
Through an exciting cooperation with a German training institute called �Andreas Hermes Akademie� (AHA), this project will train 7 trainers in the BUS training methodology, who in turn will train 257 farmers. The AHA BUS trainings (B�uerliche Unternehmer Schulungen � Agribusiness Training) equips participants with the right knowledge, skills and attitude to make the transition to a more market-oriented approach. Producing based on an understanding of the market, but also of a farmer's own resources and skills, combined with a good plan, will assist farmers to increase their profits.

Inter-FOs debates initiative (17ag-6675)

Wed, 12 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0200

Purpose of the initiative: promote debates on common political issues among farmers organizations, mandating agri-agencies, and their counterparts in developing countries.
AgriCord notes that the representation of farmers� organizations from developing countries is often too weak in debates on rural development. Agri-agencies strengthen the representation capacities of farmers� organizations and, therefore, AgriCord supports their efforts to organize dialogues between representatives of farmers� organizations on common issues.

Specific objectives:
� Create common positions and actions among farmers� organizations.
� Facilitate transmission of farmers� organizations' positions in political negotiations.
� Federate AgriCord's funding efforts on issues viewed as priority for this dialogue by farmers� organizations.
� Communicate on the actions and make known the role of AgriCord as "debates facilitators� between farmers� organizations.

Investing in Fishers for Success and Sustainability in FishCoral Project (17pksk-6674)

Thu, 16 Mar 2017 00:00:00 +0100

The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, a sub-agency of the Department of Agriculture in the Philippines, is implementing a project called "FishCoral" supported by IFAD. This project will benefit the small fishers on two potentials areas, namely 1) coastal resource management which may include sanctuary protection , rehabilitation of mangroves, prevention of illegal and destructive fishing practices, law enforcement, protection of municipal waters, policy development, and preservation of coral reefs among others; and, 2) livelihood provision for the fishers which may include introduction and support for aquatic culture activities and other fisheries related activities that reduce stress and livelihood dependence to specific bodies of water.

This proposed project will address the needs of the municipal fishers communities under this "FishCoral" project, particularly in Region 5, 8, Caraga and ARMM regions, in terms of developing their organizational capacity to engage various agencies to maximize the benefits from FishCoral as a project. The project also aims to contribute to the success of FishCoral by providing opportunities for learning and creating effective collaboration with the fishing community beneficiaries.

By the end of the project, it is expected that capability building activities have been provided to the beneficiaries, and new skills have been tested in enabling the local fishers to effectively engage and get benefits from the "FishCoral" project. These capacity building input would involved themes related to "project orientation", process of participation of the local fishers, monitoring and evaluation of the project, and engagement in national policy and knowledge sharing.

Appui aux OP membres de la CNOP pour un meilleur acc�s des jeunes et des femmes aux ressources du projet FIER Mali (17cnop-6672)

Mon, 23 Jan 2017 00:00:00 +0100

L�objectif de d�veloppement du projet FIER est de faciliter l�acc�s des jeunes ruraux � des opportunit�s d�insertion et d�emploi attractifs et rentables dans l�agriculture et les activit�s �conomiques connexes. A terme, le projet compte faire des jeunes les acteurs de fili�res agricoles modernes r�pondant � la demande du march� et r�silients aux changements climatiques.
Pour ce faire, le projet FIER responsabilise les OP faiti�res comme la FENAJER, la FENAFER et la CNOP � des niveaux d�ex�cution cl�s des activit�s. Ces niveaux d�intervention des OP sont ; (i) les espaces de pilotage et d�orientation et de d�cision du projet tels que le Comit� de Pilotage, le Comit� d�Orientation et les Centres de ressources ainsi que le comit� de d�cision en r�gion, (ii) le processus de facilitation de proximit� et des examens qualit� des demandes, (iii) les dynamiques de p�rennisation du projet en s�assurant que les int�r�ts sp�cifiques des jeunes ruraux gar�ons et filles sont effectivement pris en compte pour assurer un appui au succ�s des activit�s. Les OP, outre leur implication dans le comit� de pilotage du projet, sont signataires de conventions de collaboration avec la coordination du projet.
Apr�s une ann�e de mise en �uvre, les conditions de d�ploiement du projet sont r�alis�es dans deux cercles (Koulikoro et Sikasso).
Cependant, les OP ont r�v�l� une faiblesse de leur niveau d�implication avec des responsabilit�s sommaires pr�vues dans les diff�rentes conventions qui ont �t� sign�es lors de l�ann�e 2015 avec la coordination du projet.
Les discussion r�alis�es lors d�une mission d�appui des Agri-Agences AFDI et ASPRODEB du 04 au 10 juin 2016, ont permis aux OP de manifester leur volont� et leur d�sir, eu �gard � leur exp�rience en termes d�appui � leurs membres et les orientations nouvelles inscrites dans leurs plans strat�giques, de r�aliser des activit�s pour un meilleur acc�s des jeunes aux ressources du projet et contribuer ainsi significativement � l�atteinte des indicateurs du PTBA 2016 et des objectifs et r�sultats attendus du projet. Pour ce faire, les OP misent sur une r�plication d�initiatives r�ussies d�installation et d�accompagnement de jeunes et de femmes dans des activit�s �conomiques.
Les recommandations de la mission ont port� sur les principaux points suivants :
� Proposer une strat�gie d�int�gration harmonis�e des organisations faiti�res que sont la F�d�ration Nationale des Jeunes Ruraux (FENAJER) l�Association des Organisations Paysannes Pastorales (AOPP), la Coordination Nationale des Organisations Paysannes (CNOP) dans la mise en �uvre du projet sous la coordination de la CNOP ;
� Formuler, via le soutien des Agri-Agences, une feuille de route pour d�finir les modalit�s de l�intervention harmonis�e des OP dans le cadre du PTBA 2016 ;
� Faire une proposition financi�re permettant d�assurer l�implication des OP dans la mise en �uvre des activit�s du PTBA 2016. Les ressources financi�res seront mobilis�es par les AA et serviront de contribution des OP pour la mise en �uvre des activit�s du PTBA 2016 du projet FIER

Fri, 09 Dec 2016 00:00:00 +0100

Environ 180 000 jeunes ruraux arrivent chaque ann�e sur le march� du travail au Mali avec des difficult�s extr�mes � trouver des d�bouch�s professionnels. Ce chiffre pourrait atteindre 240 000 en 2025, induisant un besoin d�emploi pour pr�s de 3 millions de jeunes en milieu rural.
Plusieurs programmes sont mis en �uvre pour r�pondre � ces d�fis, et pointent parmi d�autres deux axes � travailler : (i) Le souhait des jeunes de s�ins�rer dans des fili�res �conomiques � rentabilit� rapide, tout en favorisant le dynamisme de la vie associative de leur territoire ; (ii) une revendication des jeunes pour un autre type d�agriculture, plus en lien avec l�utilisation de techniques et technologies.

La CNOP, plateforme des OP nationales du Mali, est engag�e depuis 2014-15 dans un programme de l�Etat en faveur de la formation et l�installation des jeunes (programme FIER) et vient d�obtenir des financements Gafsp sur la ligne � secteur priv� � pour engager un projet d�installation de jeunes sur des fili�res porteuses. Une d�l�gation du syndicat fran�ais Jeunes Agriculteurs a �t� mobilis�e par Afdi pour participer � ces r�flexions.
