WEBINAR: The Ghana Inclusive Agricultural Transformation Program

10 November 2020. The Partnership for Inclusive Agricultural Transformation in Africa (PIATA)
is a strategic partnership launched in 2017 that enables African agriculture actors to do business differently as they support leaders to drive an inclusive agricultural transformation. 

The innovative partnership is driving integrated delivery within agro-economic zones and across value chains, enhanced in-country coordination to leverage wider investments and deliberate engagement with private sector to build sustainable systems that will transition agriculture from subsistence into a business that works.

PIATA members include the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) with the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) as the implementing partner through its alliance of partners. The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) has recently joined the partnership and brings greater focus on regional food markets and food trade through policy predictability and market systems development. The Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development, BMZ is currently a non-voting member and a resource partner, co-financing AGRA’s strategy in Burkina Faso and Ghana.
