  • Making Agrifood System Work for the Poor
    TEGEMEO INSTITUTE OF AGRICULTURAL POLICY AND DEVELOPMENT MAKING AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS WORK FOR THE RURAL POOR IN EASTERN AND SOUTHERN AFRICA PROCEEDINGS OF A DISEMINATION WORKSHOP ON ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURES AND COMMUNITYS’ VOICE/PRESENCE IN GOVERNANCE OF FOOD SECURITY RELATED INITIATIVES HELD AT THE COUNTY HOTEL, SAGANA ON 11TH MARCH, 2011 Acknowledgement Tegemeo Institute acknowledges financial support from the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) for undertaking the study and holding of the workshop. Financial support from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and institutional support from Egerton University is also acknowledged. Introduction Improving agricultural productivity is crucial in enhancing food security and accelerating pro- poor growth. Various functions in implementation of programmes/projects that are geared towards mitigating food insecurity and poverty reduction have been decentralized to the local level (district and below) as a way of increasing responsiveness, effectiveness and efficiency. This has been achieved by establishment of organs through which various functions are effected and by involvement of various stakeholders, including the farmers. To ensure that initiatives are/remain relevant to the needs of local communities particularly the poor and vulnerable, it is important to continually review the governance mechanisms that are in place at these local levels. A key objective of the agri-food systems project is to promote policies and governance mechanisms for sustainable agri-food systems. It seeks to contribute to the understanding of why current policies, institutions and governance mechanisms have not enhanced ability of the rural poor, women and the vulnerable to secure sustainable livelihoods, food and income security and a revitalized natural resource base.
