Given the need and potential of private sector engagement, as well as IFAD’s history working with the private sector, the Fund must continuously reinforce this collaboration.
The publication follows a stocktaking exercise conducted on 14 sample programmes in IFAD’s NEN region, providing a description of ongoing private sector engagement in the region, both in the sovereign and non-sovereign portfolios.
The findings provide a starting point for designing and implementing new projects that leverage private sector engagement to further improve the livelihoods of smallholder producers and spur the development of rural economies.
