81299827-Full-time monitoring and evaluation of the project activities on outcome and output level

Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH

Agribusiness Facility for Africa is a German Federal Ministry for Economic Development and Cooperation (BMZ)-commissioned project, co-funded by the EU under the post-Cotonou agreement with OACPS and implemented by GIZ. Together with GIZ MOVE-ComCashew, ABF operationalizes component 1 of EU"s framework program for support to ACP agriculture value chains development. ABF is mandated to implement activities for the maize, cassava, livestock (cattle, sheep, goat) and cocoa value chains in the following three areas:
1. Skills for agribusiness
ABF scales successful agribusiness training approaches and tools through self-paced e-learning offers and blended learning. The already existing Agribusiness e-Academy on atingi.org in English and French will be expanded to more e-learning courses.
2. The Matching Grant Fund (MGF)
The MGF will support the upgrading of the targeted value chains for competitiveness and resilience regarding climate change and markets. ABF and MOVE will publish calls for proposals online. The best partners/consortia will be determined by an independent committee of experts, confirmed by the board of stakeholders in the project and will then be taken under contract and the actual implementation will start.
3. South-South exchange
Experiences and achievements under the first two outputs will be scaled even further for learning, cooperation, scaling, and institutionalization by various events such as expert talks, sharing of best practices, South-South cooperation, and conferences.
