Descripción
The overall aim of the workshop was to; 1) gain insight from multiple stakeholders about the barriers and opportunities for agribusiness SMEs’ participation in agrifood systems policymaking in NENA; 2) identify priorities for capacity development for agribusiness SMEs, and surrounding institutional and legal frameworks to be more sustainable, inclusive and competitive; 3) share best practices for building effective partnerships and coordination mechanisms among stakeholders at national and regional levels.
Engaging regional actors and reflecting the views from countries helped ensure that the plan and interventions emanating from the workshop are action and impact-oriented and respond to the challenges and needs of the countries of the region. The technical workshop was held in Cairo, Egypt from 31 October to 2 November 2022 and welcomed over 75 people from 16 countries, representing ministries of agriculture and industry, private sector, as well as International Financial Institutions (IFIs) and partner organizations (European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, World Bank, International Committee of the Red Cross, International Food Policy Research Institute, United Nations Industrial Development Organization).
