PAA Africa targeting in Niger

Abstract

"The PAA Africa programme is a multi-stakeholder initiative aimed at promoting smallholder farmers’ food security and access to institutional markets, and enhancing the food security of school pupils through the provision of regular school meals. In Niger, PAA Africa is providing inputs to a discussion on a national strategy for local procurement for food assistance. It targets smallholder farmers as the main participants on the supply side, which has highlighted the importance of the availability of key resources (human, institutional, factors of production etc.) to ensure the feasibility of the intervention".
