Policy and Economic Development
Strengthening the enabling environment for sustainable economic growth.
CNFA works with host-country governments and local partners to develop policies that support the growth and resilience of agricultural market systems through increased trade and improved agricultural inputs and services. We offer expert assistance on agriculture and food standards policies in the countries where we work, encouraging the wider adoption of international best practices for food production, processing, and handling.
By fostering cooperation between local governments and the private sector, our interventions work to align public and private ambitions for diversifying and strengthening national economies. This helps create policies that support modernization while encouraging climate-resilient and socially inclusive approaches, driving economic success. Our programs assist governments in developing legal frameworks for improved exports and agricultural inputs while supporting an enabling environment for entrepreneurship, finance, and investment.
Policy improvements are also a key component of our work in other sectors, such as in the tourism and high-tech industries, leading to more effective economic stewardship, which improves support for government and community action plans.
