Learning Into Action
What actually helps Agri-SMEs and farmer organisations grow and do so sustainably? Learning into Action is AMEA’s series of case studies and learning briefs, developed with members and partners to capture practical knowledge from programmes and experiences on the ground. Each one contributes to building the evidence base on how best to support Agri-SMEs and strengthen the BDS market ecosystem.
This evidence feeds directly into the BDS Roadmaps that AMEA has supported in the countries with active Local Networks, helping each Country Multistakeholder Platform decide where to act next. Learn more about our Local Networks and Roadmaps. It is also intended to inform programming, advocacy and budgeting more broadly.
Explore the case studies and briefs below, filter by country or theme, and join us in turning learning into action.
