1. Introduction
The Rwanda Dairy Development Project (RDDP) is a project of the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal resources, which aims to increase competitiveness and profitability of the dairy sector for the provision of quality products from small-scale producers to domestic and regional consumers, thus improving their livelihoods, food security and nutrition whilst building overall resilience. The Project operates in 14 districts: Eastern Province (Nyagatare, Rwamagana, Kayonza and Gatsibo), Northern Province (Gicumbi, Burera and Musanze), Western Province (Nyabihu, Rubavu, Rutsiro and Ngororero (part of the district located within Gishwati dairy basin) and Southern Province (Nyanza, Huye, and Ruhango).
2. Project background
Rwandan financial sector has a growing interest to finance agribusiness, with various initiatives to financially (lines of credit, guarantees,) and technically support development of adapted products for the VC actors, including small dairy farmers. These initiatives should be leveraged, noting that RDDP is contributing significantly to de-risk the financing of the value chain, which should facilitate linkages of Project beneficiaries to financial institutions. While several banks and MFIs are already receiving support to develop Agri finance portfolio, there is need to support SACCOs in this area, considering their high penetration rate in the Country and their geographical coverage (at least one Umurenge SACCO per sector).
Cordaid’s interventions have been in capacitating the actors in the dairy value chain among other activities. This fiscal year, there was an expression of interest in capacitating RCVD members. However, we first need to know the structure, the possible cohorts of ToTs that can be put in place as well as their gaps so we design proper training content for the members.
