GAFSP Call for Proposals for Country Submissions
Deadline: 8-Sep-21
The Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP) Steering Committee has launched its 6th GAFSP Call for Proposals to improve the income and food security of poor people in low-income countries through public and private sector investments, as well as technical assistance and advisory services.
GAFSP aims to fill the financing and technical gaps in country-owned and country-led agriculture and food security strategies and plans. GAFSP takes a holistic food systems perspective – with agriculture at its core – to support countries resiliently and sustainably transform their food and agriculture sector and improve environmental outcomes, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, advance gender equality, increase smallholders’ incomes, improve human health and nutritional outcomes, and enhance countries’ capacity to adapt to and build resilience for potential future crises.
This Call for Proposals is seeking technically sound proposals that not only justify the proposed public sector investment, but also identify opportunities for complementary private sector engagement and that, by design, support the creation of a conducive environment for private sector investment. The GAFSP Steering Committee looks forward to receiving a broad range of proposals, and priority will be given to those that are able to demonstrate high likelihood of effective implementation within the specific country context.
