This workshop report reflects the collaborative work between FAO and its partners in Africa, and efforts towards more integrated, multidisciplinary and effective collaboration in support to the countries’ agriculture agenda. Many colleagues from FAO Regional Office for Africa, Sub-Regional Offices, Country Offices and Headquarters contributed to its success. The organizers thank the Ministries of Agriculture and of Natural Resources of Rwanda and their different units who provided the perfect environment for this workshop, the District of Rulindo for hosting the field visit, and the team of FAO Rwanda for ensuring the logistics of the event and for mobilizing local partners, including during the field visit. Last but not least, the success of the workshop is also in large part due to the active contribution of participants from countries who took on their time to attend and help developing more strategic programmes in support to sustainable agriculture and food systems in their respective countries.

The regional workshop, entitled “engaging agriculture, forestry and fisheries in support to the 2030 agenda for sustainable development,” was held in Kigali, rwanda from 19 to 21 september 2016. This event served as an opportunity for fao to engage more effectively with countries in africa, through its delivery mechanisms, on changes needed to achieve the sdgs. The purpose of the workshop was to identify priorities for action in the context of the africa agricultural Transformation agenda through fao’s regional initiative 2 (ri2) on “sustainable intensification of production and value chain development in africa.” The four areas of focus of the workshop – sustainable intensification, value chain development, poverty reduction, and nutrition – are the pillars around which the discussions were organized.

In the Africa Region, the Malabo Declaration on Accelerated Agricultural Growth and Transformation for Shared Prosperity and Improved Livelihoods and the CAADP Implementation Strategy and Roadmap 2015-2025 provide the framework for agriculture, emphasizing the role of agriculture in contributing to broader strategies for structural economic transformation and inclusive growth. Achieving the SDGs in Africa is closely linked to the implementation of this vision.

The workshop addressed how the principles of Sustainable food and agriculture (SFA) can promote joint action to strengthen the contribution of agriculture, forestry and fisheries to sustainable development, and to identify priorities for FAO’s support in the 9 focus countries of the Regional Initiative (Mali, Democratic Republic of Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Chad, Cameroon, Rwanda, Mozambique, Kenya and Zambia).

The workshop gathered approximately 70 participants, including senior government officials from different ministries – agriculture, forestry, fisheries, trade, finance and economic planning departments – and FAO experts from regional, sub-regional and country Offices and from FAO Headquarters in Rome. Participants from each country had the opportunity to establish new ways of collaborating across ministries to strategize on how to most effectively work together towards achieving the SDGs.

The workshop included a field trip to the Rulindo District, where FAO is experimenting with a more integrated way of supporting local development; and a marketplace to showcase key tools that FAO makes available to countries. Participants from different ministries and FAO experts worked together to identify concrete actions to achieve the SDGs and shaping FAO support.

On the last day, the teams focused on country planning. The purpose was to identify concrete actions in the fields of sustainable intensification; value chain development; poverty reduction and nutrition that participants would consider as priority actions for their country. Special attention was given to inter-sectoral governance mechanisms that foster more integrated and effective action. These actions were then reviewed in order to shape FAO support to countries in the framework of the Regional Initiative in the near future.

2 Regional woRkshop foR afRica: synthesis RepoRt

in september 2015, countries adopted the 2030 agenda for sustainable development. This agenda will shape their development programmes in a transformational way for the next 15 years. at the last fao regional conference for africa, held in abidjan in april 2016, many delegates asked the organization to assist countries in their efforts to implement the 2030 agenda in the field of agriculture, forestry and fisheries. The successful achievement of the sdgs is closely associated with countries being able to address sustainable development in a holistic and comprehensive way across sectors, and in their capacity to monitor progress against targets set by the 2030 agenda.

in the african region, the malabo declaration on accelerated agricultural growth and Transformation for shared prosperity and improved livelihoods and the caadp implementation strategy and roadmap 2015-2025 provide a framework for agriculture, emphasizing the role of agriculture in contributing to broader strategies for structural economic transformation and inclusive growth. achieving the sdgs in africa is closely linked to the implementation of this new vision.

fao has developed an approach aimed at enhancing the contributions of agriculture, forestry and fisheries to sustainable development and to address sustainability issues across these sectors. based on a set of principles for sfa, fao promotes policy dialogue and the development of joint and coordinated actions involving governmental bodies of different ministries, the private sector and civil society. at regional and country levels, fao is supporting this primarily through regional initiatives.

objecTive The objective of the workshop was to discuss how the principles for SFA can promote joint action to strengthen the contribution of agriculture, forestry and fisheries to sustainable development, and to identify priorities for FAO's support at national and regional levels to support the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Africa’s agricultural transformation agenda, and to identify priorities for action in the context of FAO’s Regional Initiative 2 (RI2) on “Sustainable Intensification of Production and Value Chain Development in Africa”.

The first session of the workshop offered an overarching framework, which set the scene for the workshop. The session was kicked off with a speech from gerardine mukeshimana, the minister of agriculture and animal resources (annex 3). during her speech, she stressed the importance of having a more comprehensive approach to agriculture. This can be achieved by reaching out to other sectors, including economy, health and natural resources. one of the ways to achieve this will be through the sdgs. The minister’s speech was then followed by introduction on relevant fao programs, and a panel discussion that explained the four areas of focus of the workshop.

opening session This first session was opened by the Minister of Agriculture and Animal Resources, Hon Gerardine Mukeshimana and was facilitated by Otto Muhinda, Assistant FAO Representative in Rwanda, who introduced all delegations represented (Cameroon, Chad, Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Mali, Mozambique, DRC, Zambia, Rwanda, Uganda and WTO).

M. Attaher Maiga, FAO Representative in Rwanda, then welcomed all participants (Annex 4). He explained that the objective of the workshop was to exchange ideas, information, knowledge and experience on how a sustainable food and agriculture (SFA) can promote joint action to strengthen the contribution of agriculture, forestry and fisheries to sustainable development. He emphasized that it is important that actors use what is currently available without jeopardizing resources for future generations. He then stated that the workshop would be an opportunity to support of the 2030 Agenda, fostering integrated development where policy dialogue and inclusiveness of all actors can lead to success. The challenge in Africa, however, is its high population growth, which therefore requires thinking differently on sustainability.

Hon. Gerardine Mukeshimana, Minister of Agriculture and Animal Resources, welcomed all participants to the meeting and expressed that it was a great honour and pleasure for her to host the workshop dealing with the commitment on the 2030 Agenda, which has the potential to transform our world and lives. Lessons learnt from the past force a new approach to development. Rwanda has engaged in the Vision 2020 and is now developing a 2050 strategy for agricultural transformation where investment in agriculture, extension services, better control of natural resources and opening door to investors to participate are already underway. She stressed the importance of having a more comprehensive approach to agriculture. This can be achieved by reaching out to other sectors, including economy, health and natural resources. One of the ways to achieve this will be through the SDGs.

session 1: seTTing The scene

food and agriculture in the context of the 2030 agenda and the malabo declaration Jean-Marc Faurès presented on Food and Agriculture in the 2030 Agenda. He emphasized that the main characteristics of the SDGs are that the process is country driven and country owned, universal, indivisible and inclusive. He highlighted the importance of integration and securing local participation, innovative partnership, measuring progress and strengthening monitoring capacity at country level. Because agriculture is essential in the SDGs, country engagement is also critical. Agriculture is not only production, but it must integrate economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainability. SFA proposes to use five key principles to reach this multiple objectives (Annex 5).

Ruhiza Boroto presented the RI2, linking the initiative with CAADP and the Malabo Declaration. He pointed out that the lowest production and productivity of the continent should be seen as an opportunity. He stressed that the RI2 on sustainable intensification is considering staple food and cash crops, thus learning from the Green Revolution in Asia. The RI encourages integration (crop, aquaculture, livestock production and synergies between all these productions). The initiative uses the benefits of integration to improve household nutrition. After a first phase of seven countries, nine countries are now included in the RI2, of which four are close observation countries. He concluded by inviting countries to own the workshop and to use FAO officers present to support them.

panel discussionSustainable intensification, (Clayton Campanhola, SPL, SP2). Campanhola highlighted the challenges of the region as they relate to agriculture, fisheries and forestry, which include population growth, youth unemployment and low productivity now exacerbated by climate change. Agriculture, which will lead to increased food, is key to addressing these challenges.

He stressed that sustainable intensification is not simply increasing use of inputs, but rather to ensure efficiency in use of resources. This means producing more with less, but, at the same time, balancing social, economic and environmental aspects of production. FAO is instrumental in this process by coordinating cross-sectoral initiatives for rural development, promoting access to sustainable practices through farmer field schools and South-South cooperation, and reporting on progress towards international targets such as the SDGs and Malabo Declaration indicators

Value chain development: linking producers to consumers (Jamie Morrison, SPL, SP4). Morrison began by explaining that value chains are defined as the individuals, enterprises and their range of activities that transform agricultural produce from the farm to the consumer, linking the producer to the consumer. He said that, when it comes to value chain development and sustainable intensification, it is often a chicken and egg situation. Without the development of value chains, production will not be increased consistently because the incentives to adopt technologies and practices that increase productivity will not be sustained. Yet, without consistency of supply, there will be less incentive for the private sector along the chain to invest, so value chains are unable to develop. Therefore we need to understand the different incentives along the value chain. And we need to look at the dynamics of a food system that require coordination at national and even global levels, where coordination across ministries is important

Sustainable agriculture for poverty reduction (Maya Takagi, Deputy SPL, SP3). Takagi opened with the link between rural poverty and agriculture, which is evidence that agriculture plays an important role in ending hunger. Farmers often face simultaneous challenges: the need to address productivity and also have access to markets. She stressed the lack of decent rural employment and the importance of recognizing farmers as agents of change. It will be necessary to develop comprehensive packages of interventions to address all of the challenges faced by the rural focus. Then successful initiatives can be selected and scaled up.

Towards nutrition-sensitive agriculture (Dia Sanou, Nutrition Officer, SFE). Sanou introduced nutrition sensitive agriculture as basically integrating nutrition into agriculture programming. It is an approach that seeks to maximize agriculture's contribution to improved nutrition outcomes, meaning that sustainable intensification needs to have a positive impact on nutrition. The entry points for mainstreaming nutrition into SFA is by integrating nutrition objectives and indicators into policies, programmes and strategies; through bio-fortification; ensuring that the crops/foods that are been intensified has high nutritional value; and focusing on staple crops and less invasive crops and integrating with nutrition education.

session 2: review of counTry prioriTiesPrior to the event, participants from the nine countries were requested to come together, across different ministries, to produce a presentation on key issues and what would be necessary to achieve the SDGs in their respective countries. Issues were to be organized around the five principles of SFA used by FAO to organize thinking on SDGs. Countries met in groups of three to present their local situation and analyze commonalities and specificities. Key findings are presented below.

Productivity: Productivity remains low in most countries of the Regional Initiative. Lack of knowledge, infrastructure, access to inputs, credit and markets, poor extension services and poor control of water resources hamper the development of productive farming systems. While land is still abundant in many countries, like in DRC, the number of regions where land or water resources becomes an issue is on the rise. Competition for land, between sectors of activity, is very strong in Rwanda for instance, while countries like Mali have to face increasing constraints due to limited water availability.

Efficient value chains: Market access, and the development of efficient and dynamic markets both at local, national and sub-regional levels, remain an issue in many countries. While some value chains are well developed for some crops, farmers in the countries of the Regional Initiative rarely take advantage of opportunities offered by local markets, including growing cities. Trade barriers limit the opportunities for sub-regional trade, like in Kenya, and the conditions of road, storage, transformation and market infrastructure often reduce opportunities for farmers.

Livelihood and social well-being: Poverty and hunger remain high in rural areas, where the majority of poor people live, in all countries of the region. This indicates an increasing imbalance between conditions of living in rural and in urban areas, with fewer opportunities for decent work, and a high rate of youth unemployment in particular. The opportunities vary between countries, with some having reached limits in their available resources, and others, like Zambia or DRC, still offering substantial potential for growth in agriculture. The lack of off-farm opportunities also limits rural people’s opportunities. The nutritional status of rural populations varies between countries, but is poor in general due to lack of nutritional education and little incentives to diversify production.

Climate change resilience and environmental conservation: Poor agricultural productivity translates into encroachment on natural resources, including forests, in countries like Côte d’Ivoire and DRC, while demographic pressure leads to land degradation and erosion in countries like Rwanda. Climate change is increasingly affecting all countries, in particular those in sub-humid and semi-arid areas like Mozambique, Chad or Mali, where increasingly variable climate affects crop and livestock productivity. Illegal logging and deforestation remain key challenges in countries like Cameroon and DRC.

Governance: Most countries have institutional coordination mechanisms on different issues, but their effectiveness varies from case to case. There is clearly a gap in coordination between environmental and agriculture sectors (the efforts made in Rwanda to close this gap have been highlighted). Much remains to be done in most

9DAY 1: EXPLORING THE NEW GOVERNANCE ENVIRONMENT

countries in better linking agriculture with commerce and trade, and in most cases the linkages between agriculture and nutrition are almost non-existent. Extension and advisory services are weak and rarely include nutrition or conservation in their curriculum.

session 3: engaging in The 2030 agenda

partnershipsAnna Rappazzo gave a presentation on the importance of partnerships in the 2030 Agenda. She stressed that partnerships are the main delivery mechanism for the SDGs and are essential for inclusive multi-stakeholder engagement and integration across sectors. Partnerships help guarantee policy coherence, give a platform for aligning with regional and national priorities, can provide financial resources and, in the end, create an enabling environment for achieving the SDGs. They also provide the venue to scale up commitments.

monitoring the sdgsAmy Heyman then presented on monitoring for results. She informed that, unlike the MDG process, the SDGs have been driven by countries, with the support of international organizations. She explained the role of FAO as custodian of 21 of the 231 indicators. The indicators have been categorized by the IAEG-SDGs based on two criteria: methodology and data availability. Tier I indicators have both an internationally accepted methodology and time series data. Tier II indicators only have a well-developed methodology, and Tier III are new and therefore do not have an internationally recognized methodology or time series data. She concluded with what FAO is doing to support SDG monitoring, which includes collecting data from national

sources, validating and harmonizing them, unifying the information into a standard platform, and providing statistical capacity development to countries.

case studiesThe Songhai approach to sustainable agriculture (Ruhiza Boroto). FAO has engaged in a partnership with the non-governmental organization "Songhai", based in Benin, and focusing on development and innovation. With its integrated approach, it aims to systemically addressing multiple challenges (agriculture/food security, demographic transition/youth employment, health and environment) that African countries face in their efforts to achieve a sustainable economy and rural growth. A central tenet of the Songhai initiative is that the only way to effectively fight poverty is to make the poor productive and strengthen individual capacities to do so through tailored training. Socio-economic initiatives are necessary in order to provide a critical mass of young men and women who are capable of providing leadership and have the skills necessary to create wealth through more humane and sustainable businesses. Examples of the Songhai approach to development were illustrated through a video showing some of the many initiatives promoted by Songhai. FAO’s Regional Initiative 2 has funded, with the African Solidary Trust Fund, a study tour of farmers and government officials from Côte d’Ivoire at the Songhai Centre.

An integrated approach to production and conservation in Burundi (Salvatore Ndabirorere). The project is part of FAO’s efforts for a more integrated approach to agriculture in Africa. The purpose of the project is to adopt a multi-disciplinary and catalytic approach to address the degradation of natural resources; loss of agricultural productivity and income; malnutrition and poverty in rural areas of Burundi. Key entry points for action are the watershed, community and farmer field schools. A range of activities are promoted by the project, including sustainable land management (terraces, contour ridges, fodder production, small scale irrigation); crop intensification; diversification (vegetables, fish ponds, piggery); better integration of crop and livestock production, etc. Central to the success of the programme is: 1) the participatory approach from the planning phase to implementation; 2) the capacity development at all levels, from farmers to communities, advisory services and planning capacities at watershed level; 3) the focus on improved livelihood and, income; 4) social cohesion and the development of a common vision; and 5) access to credit, research, innovation and partnership.

The potato value chain: from production to trade in Uganda (Patricia Nsiime). The main objective of the regional project ‘Strengthening linkages between small actors and buyers in the roots and tubers sector’ is to improve the livelihoods of small producers engaged in the roots and tubers value chains in selected countries through the promotion of linkages to domestic and regional markets. The key messages that emerged from the Uganda experience, focusing on potato, include:

• Seed potato is an issue in terms of quantity and quality;

• There is an increasing need to help potato farmers adapting to climate change;

11DAY 1: EXPLORING THE NEW GOVERNANCE ENVIRONMENT

• Market linkages can only be viable when either party is willing to adjust and negotiate the most feasible situation;

• Downscaling market and climate information to the farmer level is essential.

Linking social protection with agriculture in Zambia (George Okech). The presentation addressed two critical questions: 1) why social protection is needed when supporting sustainable agricultural intensification among small family farmers, and 2) how are we strengthening coherence between agriculture and social protection in Zambia. Social protection covers a range of possible interventions, including social assistance (cash transfer, school feeding, public works, etc.), social insurance (health insurance, crop insurance, etc.) or labour market protection. Social protection addresses the needs of smallholder farmers who represent the majority of farmers in Africa. Combating poverty involves increasing agricultural productivity, but these farmers are extremely vulnerable to risks, which makes them risk averse and hampers their capacity to invest in productive agriculture. By reducing risk, social protection allows small family farmers to engage progressively in more productive agricultural activities. Examples from Zambia, Malawi, Lesotho and Ghana show that well designed social protection programmes contribute to increasing agricultural productivity and incomes of smallholder farmers. They also highlight the importance of ensuring more coherence between agriculture and social protection policies.

session 4: a review of available ToolsThis session was devoted to presenting relevant tools for engaging in the 2030 Agenda in food and agriculture through a Marketplace. Ten tools were presented with posters and a brief explanation illustrating each a tool. The topics were first introduced in plenary, and then participants rotated around the room to learn about selected tools. Speakers briefly presented the tool to whomever chose to come and listen, and participants dialogued with the presenters. The presentations were repeated 4 to 5 times. The session concluded with distribution of material for future consultation.

The following tools were presented during the session:

• Cross sectoral policy dialogue: the Sustainable food and agriculture approach (Jean-Marc Faurès)

• Farmer field school approach for sustainable intensification (Joyce Mulila Mitti)

• Rural invest (Gunther Feiler)

• Enhanced Integrated Framework for Trade (Mbaye Ndiaye)

• Building inclusive value chains (Jamie Morrison)

• Nutrition sensitive agriculture (Domitille Kauffmann)

• Tools to supporting family farmers to reduce rural poverty (Maya Takagi)

• SHARP: Self-evaluation of climate resilience at farm level (Amy Heyman)

• Incentives for ecosystem services (Domitille Vallée)

A brief description of each tool is presented in Annex 6.

field visiT To The rulindo disTricTday 2 started with a field visit to the district of rulindo, near Kigali, where the local government and fao are piloting an innovative and integrated approach to support sustainable agricultural and value chain development. participants were welcomed by the vice-mayor and inhabitants of rulindo, and visited the river catchment where they could see and discuss on-going efforts towards sustainable land management, livelihood diversification, public-private partnership, improved access to market, etc.

participants were asked to look at the situation from the different angles of sustainable intensification; value chain development; poverty reduction and nutrition, and assessing these with regard to their own country experience. These insights were then used in session 5 to help the rulindo district understanding its strengths and weaknesses, and identifying elements of an integrated plan for agriculture.

session 5: visioning, developing scenarios and addressing Trade-offsBuilding on the field visit to Rulindo, the goal of this session was to play out a scenario of working towards an integrated plan for agriculture in the District, taking into consideration key trade-offs faced in attempting to address multiple goals.

Each group was asked to review the District’s policies and programmes in order to better align with the 2030 Agenda. They were then asked to discuss constraints that the District faced in order to achieve productive, sustainable and inclusive agriculture across the four dimensions of the workshop. They then proposed actions to be considered in preparing and implementing the District Plan, while taking into account coordination among sectors, actors and partners; financing; investments and technology; institutional capacity; and monitoring and evaluation. The session concluded with possible conflicts and how to address trade-offs. A summary of the results is presented in Annex 7.

session 6: counTry planningsessions 6 and 7 focused on country planning. The purpose was to identify concrete actions in the fields of sustainable intensification; value chain development; poverty reduction and nutrition, which participants would consider as priority actions for their country. These actions were then reviewed in order to shape fao support to countries in the framework of the regional initiative (session 7).

at first, country groups identified major policies, strategies and programmes in place that are supporting the implementation of the 2030 agenda and are the main promoters of the four themes discussed in the workshop (session 6). They then discussed and listed inter-sectoral governance mechanisms that help coordinate implementation programs across ministries, sectors and different stakeholders, analyzing them in terms of strengths and weaknesses. finally, country groups identified gaps and the potential for improved coordination.

session 7: shaping fao supporT

identifying priorities for actionSession 7 focused on the areas where FAO should concentrate its support to the countries through its Regional Initiative 2. Based on the result of Session 6, country participants worked with the support of their FAO country representative and other colleagues to identify areas of work in the forthcoming future for which FAO support was needed. These actions were organized along the four themes of the workshop (sustainable intensification; value chain development; poverty reduction; and nutrition), and clustered in four categories: cross sectoral coordination; partnership; SDG monitoring; Capacity Development; and Support to investment. Results by country are presented in Annex 8.

Activities were further prioritized to identify, for each category, the 4-5 most urgent activities where FAO support could be requested. They were then clustered into a single table showing activities by country and by theme. The result of this exercise is presented in Annex 9.

resource mobilizationA session on resource mobilization was organized to inform participants about relevant sources of funding for work in sustainable agriculture. Presentations were done through video conference on three themes: 1) the Global Environmental Facility (GEF); 2) South-South Cooperation; 3) the Green Climate Fund.

Jeffrey Griffin and Fritjof Boerstler presented the GEF, a financial mechanism for the major environmental Conventions. As a GEF partner agency, FAO offers experience in

16 Regional woRkshop foR afRica: synthesis RepoRt

sustainable fisheries, forestry, agriculture and land management. Planning is on-going for the forthcoming GEF cycle (GEF-7), in which the focus will be on multifocal area programmes. Possible areas for interventions include climate smart agriculture; sustainable biomass/woodfuel; and agro-biodiversity.

Festus Akinnifesi made a presentation on South-South cooperation (SSC) as an important tool for promoting development cooperation. It has been used by FAO for the last 30 years for sharing and exchanging development solutions: knowledge information, innovations, technology, experiences, technical capacity, policy and resources. The different SSC modalities were described, with examples of on-going agreements. SSC include short- and long-term arrangements, which comprise training of extension staff; introduction of new crop varieties; demonstrating and adapting new technologies; and the provision of farm machineries and equipment.

Conrad George presented the Green Climate Fund (GCF), an instrument under the UNFCCC Financial Mechanism, supporting the implementation of Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC, contribution to the Climate Paris Agenda). The agricultural sectors are among the highest priorities in developing countries’ INDCs, and there is significant potential for these sectors to deliver within the GCF framework. FAO is exploring three ways to support Member States through the GCF: as a GCF-accredited implementing entity, in supporting the design and implementation of projects led by other accredited entities, and as a delivery partner in the GCF Readiness Programme. FAO Country Offices are encouraged to engage in a discussion with the National Designated Authority (NDA) as a first step to identify possibilities of collaboration under GCF. The GCF readiness programme is a mechanism that provides countries with grants of up to USD 300,000 per project to strengthen NDAs, develop the GCF country programme and accreditation of direct access entities.

session 8: The way aheadSession 8 was the concluding session. It offered participants the opportunity to make ‘commitments’ on what they would do after the workshop to transform findings and recommendations into action at a personal level and within their countries. Results of country commitments have been captured and are presented in Annex 10.

FAO Officers in charge of the four themes of the workshop were given the opportunity to provide reflections and insights about the workshop and the way these themes were addressed.

The meeting concluded with reflections from Beth Crawford, FAO Regional Strategic Framework Coordinator on the significance and results of the workshop, their implications for FAO programme in the region in the framework of the Regional Initiative 2, and commitment to support RI2 focus countries in their efforts towards engaging food and agriculture in the 2030 Agenda in a more comprehensive, inclusive and integrated way.

27ANNEX 3: SPEECH BY HON. GERARDINE MUKESHIMANA, MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE, RWANDA

annex 3: speech by hon. gerardine muKeshimana, minisTer of agriculTure, rwanda

Dear M. Maiga, Representative of FAO in Rwanda, Distinguished guests,

It is a pleasure and an honour for me to welcome you to Kigali for the Regional Workshop on agriculture in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development organized by FAO.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, to which all our countries have committed, has the potential to transform our world, and our lives. By focusing on people; our planet; prosperity; peace and partnership, it forces us to approach development in a new and transformational way.

For many years now Rwanda has made substantial efforts to transform its agriculture into a modern, productive and successful business. We have invested heavily in crop intensification, in mechanisation and in better control of our natural resources. We have opened our doors to investors in order to promote a business-oriented agriculture, and agriculture that makes the best use of our limited resources, in particular our land.

But this is not enough. We are increasingly aware of the complexity of the many roles that agriculture must play. We expect a vibrant sector that contributes to the country’s economy, but we also expect a sector that helps improve food security and nutrition in Rwanda, that provides decent employment opportunities for its people; a sector that manages the resources in a sustainable way without compromising them for future generations.

This is a tremendous challenge for agriculture in Rwanda, and it is one we cannot address alone. Increasingly we understand the need to take a more comprehensive approach, to build bridges with other parts of the economy, with the health sector, with natural resources and with others in order to more effectively deliver our services.

This is the reason why I would like to thank the FAO for having organised this workshop in Kigali. Your selection of four areas of focus – sustainable intensification; value chain; poverty reduction and nutrition – are perfectly aligned with the priorities that govern the actions of the Ministry of Agriculture in Rwanda. The SDGs will help us look at development issues in a more coordinated way and overcome the complexity of having to address so many objectives. I am sure many countries in Africa share the same concerns.

Dear participants,

I understand that tomorrow you will have a field visit to our Rulindo District, not too far from Kigali. I believe that this is a great opportunity for us and for you: you will be able to have a flavour of the beautiful landscape of Rwanda, and you will see some of the initiatives we are promoting in agriculture. I hope that you will draw inspiration from these, and that you will also use your own experiences to draw new ideas that can help make our agriculture more productive and more sustainable.

I look forward to the results of this important workshop, I wish you a fruitful discussion, and, for those of you who have come from far away, I hope that you will enjoy your stay in Rwanda and appreciate the hospitality of the Rwandan people.

Thank you.

Good morning to you all. Bonjour. Muramutse!

It is my honor and pleasure to welcome you to this Regional Workshop “Towards productive, sustainable and inclusive agriculture, forestry and fisheries in support to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”.

Please allow me to begin by extending my sincere thanks to the Government of Rwanda for allowing us to host this regional event in this Beautiful and Clean city of Kigali. My cordial thanks to the Hon. Minister of Agriculture and Animal Resources, Dr. Gerardine Mukeshimana, for finding the time to be with us this morning despite her busy agenda and for her constant support to FAO’s work in Rwanda. Merci à vous toutes et tous pour votre présence.

30 Regional woRkshop foR afRica: synthesis RepoRt

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The objectives of this 3-day event will be explained in detail by my colleagues later on. I can however already tell you that we are gathering here to notably exchange ideas, information, knowledge and experiences on how best to collectively support the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, with a due consideration to the contribution of agriculture, livestock, forestry, fisheries and environment.

It is in this context that FAO put forward the common vision and approach for Sustainable Food and Agriculture (SFA). Sustainability of food and agriculture is about using what we need to live now, without jeopardizing the potential for people in the future to meet their needs. Farmers need to know that their soil will be able to produce crops as well (or better) in the future as it does now. Livestock producers must be assured that they will have access to sufficient clean water for their animals to drink, and enough feed for them to eat. Fish farmers need to be sure that the water they depend on for their livelihood will remain free of toxic chemicals that might run off of farmland. Communities depending on forest products also want the confidence that the forests will keep producing timber, fruits and other products of nature.

I therefore believe this common vision offers an opportune entry point for more coordinated and effective actions in agriculture, livestock, fisheries and forestry, in support of the 2030 Agenda, thus fostering integrated implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. The Sustainable Food and Agriculture provides a framework for policy dialogue and the improved governance arrangements and programmes needed for more coherent and integrated development, involving inter-ministerial governmental bodies, private sector and civil society.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

With the world’s highest rates of population growth predicted to occur in areas that are dependent on the agriculture sector for food and nutrition security and livelihoods, the sustainability dimension cannot indeed be over emphasized. This should notably be tackled through sound policies, strategies and targeted interventions, articulated with effective linkages of agriculture to markets and food processing industries, at national and regional levels.

During a recent Africa Ministerial Conference session on Social and Environmental Sustainability in Italy, the FAO Director General remarked, I quote: There will be no sustainable development if agriculture and food security are not central to our policies and programmes. End of quote

It is with this consideration in mind that the sustainable agriculture intensification and value chains development is at the heart of FAO’s strategic framework and programmes.

31ANNEX 4: SPEECH BY ATTAHER MAIGA, FAO REPRESENTATIVE IN RWANDA

In Rwanda, FAO is partnering with Government in piloting the SFA approach in Rulindo District (Northern Province) where a field visit is planned for tomorrow. Though some of the interventions are at an earlier implementation stage I believe this should provide a welcome opportunity for reflection, discussion and experience sharing directly related to the theme and expectations of this regional workshop.

Before concluding my remarks, I wish to renew my sincere thanks to our member countries representatives from the invited countries present with a special thank to our host country, branded as “Remarkable Rwanda”.

To our dear friends Development Partners, let me reiterate that the sustainability agenda can only be achieved through multi-faceted partnership. FAO values your partnership and looks forward to its further impactful strengthening.

Finally, I wish to extend a big thank to my fellow FAO colleagues across the Organization for their hard work, dedication and effective support. I look forward to productive and constructive discussions during the next three days.

Thank you for your attention. Merci pour votre attention. Murakoze Cyane.

annex 5: The five principles of susTainable food and agriculTure (sfa)

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) offer a unique opportunity for countries to develop policies and practices that truly integrate short and long term development concerns, stressing the absolute necessity to balance the three dimensions of sustainability: economic, social and environmental. Goal 2 reflects this interconnectedness by focusing on food and nutrition security, and sustainable agriculture.

FAO has recently developed a Common vision and approach on sustainable food and agriculture (SFA). This vision, which aims at operationalising sustainability on the ground, now guides FAO’s efforts in assisting countries in their transition towards sustainable agriculture.

The vision sees agriculture, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture as an extraordinary engine of intensification which has been able to transform natural resources into a rich variety of products and services, and which has succeeded in feeding a fast growing world population. It recognizes, however, that the current trajectory of growth in agricultural production and productivity is unsustainable: most of our production models have major negative impacts on the Earth’s ecosystems, while at the same time not securing decent living conditions for many of those who rely on “natural capital” for their livelihoods. In many places, also, the ‘transformation engine’ is under-performing, with major productivity gaps that affect food security, livelihoods and the environment. It also stresses that today’s weak governance for tenure of natural resources results in their degradation, perpetuates inequalities, and exacerbates conflicts.

In FAO’s vision, sustainability issues are strongly anchored in today’s reality. Sustainability is much more than ensuring protection of the natural resource base. To be sustainable, agriculture must meet the needs of present and future generations for its products and services, while ensuring profitability, environmental health, and social and economic equity. The challenge for sustainable agriculture is to contribute to all four pillars of food security – availability, access, utilization and stability – in a manner that is environmentally, economically and socially responsible over time.

Central to FAO’s vision are five overarching principles: 1. Efficient use of resources; 2. Conservation and enhancement of natural resources; 3. Protection of rural livelihoods, improvement of equity and social well-being; Building resilience of people, communities and ecosystems; and 5. Effective governance. These principles balance the social, economic and environmental dimensions of sustainability and provide a basis for developing adapted policies, strategies, and associated packages of regulations and incentives.

33ANNEX 5: THE FIVE PRINCIPLES OF SUSTAINABLE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE (SFA)

A growing challenge to sustainability is to acknowledge and balance interactions, benefits and trade-offs that result from different configurations of agriculture. Trade-offs occur between the human and natural systems, within both, and over time, and need to be understood and negotiated. At the same time, we are not sufficiently exploiting the potential of cross-sectoral integration and associated synergies. A much more integrated approach to agriculture can help enhancing these synergies.

FAO’s vision for sustainable food and agriculture is therefore that of a process by which agriculture will progressively transition towards more sustainable models. It is a process based on dialogue between stakeholders and between disciplines, and in which solutions are negotiated on the basis of co-constructed evidence and share understanding of the issues at stake.

The five principles of sustainable food and agriculture

Improving efficiency in the use of resources is crucial to sustainable agriculture

1.

Sustainability requires direct action to conserve, protect enhance natural resources

2.

Agriculture that fails to protect and improve rural livelihoods, equity and social well-being is unsustainable

3.

Enhanced resilience of people, communities in ecosystems is key to a sustainable agriculture

4.

Sustainable food and agriculture requires responsible and effective governance mechanisms

cross-secToral policy dialogue: The susTainable food and agriculTure approach (jean-marc faurès)As the population grows and countries develop, there is increased competition for natural resources (land, water, energy), across agriculture sectors and beyond, and they are progressively intertwined. For achieving the SDGs, a new approach is needed, one that integrates agriculture, forestry and fisheries, and that takes into account trade-offs and synergies across sectors and across sustainability dimensions. FAO has recently developed an approach to address sustainable development in agricultural sectors in a more effective and integrated way. This approach helps support necessary policy dialogues and governance arrangements and to identify sustainable development pathways across the SDGs, across the sectors and along related value chains. An example is provided with on-going efforts to better align natural resources and agriculture policies in Rwanda.

farmer field school approach for susTainable inTensificaTion (joyce mulila miTTi)Farmer Field School (FFS) is an extension approach developed by FAO for training farmers to incorporate sustainable natural resource management practices into their farming systems. FFS aims at enhancing farmers’ productivity, reducing costs, building resilience to stress and strengthening their capacity to manage risk. It is a forum for exchanging experiences and expertise, helping farmers to learn by doing, and providing them with the tools needed to analyse their practices and identify solutions to their problems. Main approaches of FFSs include recognizing the knowledge and valuable experiences of farmers, and field oriented and farmer centred programmes. All activities are based on learning-by-doing, participatory and hands-on work. The purpose is to help farmers learn how to organize themselves and their communities.

building inclusive value chains (jamie morrison)The Global Food System diagram was used to explain how value chains, in connecting producers to consumers, operate within a broader set of policies, regulations and norms and that in diagnosing constraints to value chain development, a holistic approach needs to be taken. The FAO Sustainable Food Value Chains knowledge platform was introduced as a tool for accessing relevant handbooks and case studies (Library), finding out about relevant FAO and non-FAO events (News and events), accessing training materials (Training and Learning centre) and sharing experiences (Members’ area).

nuTriTion sensiTive agriculTure (domiTille Kauffmann)The role of food systems features as a central focus of the Rome Declaration on Nutrition, and political commitment to make agriculture and food security policies and programmes “nutrition-sensitive” are growing. Government ministries are increasing their contribution to multi-sectoral nutrition strategies. On their side, development partners are making nutrition-sensitive agriculture a central feature of their support to agricultural investments. A prominent challenge for transforming this commitment in action, however, is the lack of capacity for designing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating policies and programmes, alongside with the lack of guidelines and tools to assist professionals and policy makers to effectively integrate nutrition in their work. This toolkit and e-learning module address these needs through providing an integrated package of guidance materials, which include key recommendations for improving nutrition through agriculture and food systems, a checklist for programme formulation, a compendium of nutrition-sensitive food and agriculture interventions, and a list of related indicators.

Tools To supporTing family farmers To reduce rural poverTy (maya TaKagi)Despite recent progress, still today 1 billion people are poor and around 800 million are hungry. Extreme poverty is concentrated in rural areas, and the rural poor largely rely on agriculture. In sub-Saharan Africa 66% of the income of poor small family farmers comes from agriculture. FAO works through a multi-dimensional approach to address the challenges that poor family farmers face in their daily lives and increase their income generating capacity with a view to reducing rural poverty. It does so through addressing issues and developing tools related to supporting family farmers to reduce rural poverty, working with youth and agriculture, and by combatting poverty and hunger by bringing together agriculture and social protection.

sharp: self-evaluaTion of climaTe resilience aT farm level (amy heyman)The Self-evaluation and Holistic Assessment of climate Resilience of farmers and Pastoralists (SHARP) tool is designed as an instrument to assess the resilience of farmer and pastoralist households to climate change. Following a survey-based evaluation of households’ climate resilience (Phase 1), gaps and weaknesses in the response of farmers and institutions to climate variability are analyzed (Phase 2). Finally, information gathered through the first two phases is integrated with broader-level climatic data, with the aim of assisting farmers in prioritising actions to build the resilience of their agro-ecosystems – as well as orienting institutions towards the best possible policy approaches in order to strengthen climate resilience (Phase 3).

incenTives for ecosysTem services (domiTille vallée)Incentives for Ecosystem Service (IES) are packages of public and private measures that create an umbrella of programmes to support farmers in the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices that will benefit the environment and protect long-term food security. Competing land uses cause reduction of ecosystem services and food security. This has costs to farmers and other sectors of society. Improved sustainable agricultural and conservation practices are required to restore ecosystem services, improve productivity and diversify livelihoods. Without incentives, however, farmers are limited in their ability to invest the time and capital to overcome technical, cultural or financial adoption barriers to implement these best practices. IES creates an enabling environment for the improved coordination of existing public and private co-financing of a spectrum of incentives to support farmers in overcoming these adoption barriers. Public policies to improve farm productivity can be combined with those that reward conservation practices. Both can see its results maximized by partnering with green business strategies such as ecological value-added markets. This brings benefits to farmers and other sectors of society.

37ANNEX 7: THE RULINDO DISTRICT: DEVELOPING SCENARIOS AND ADDRESSING TRADE-OFFS

annex 7: The rulindo disTricT: developing scenarios and addressing Trade-offs

This Annex summarizes participant’s assessment of the situation in the Rulindo District following the Field Visit on 20 September. It is organized in terms of assessment of strengths and constraints and elements to be considered in the framework of a 5-year effort towards more sustainable agriculture in the District. It also reviews issues of conflicts and trade-offs that need to be addressed at the District level.

The rulindo disTricT and The yanZe caTchmenTRulindo is one of 30 districts of Rwanda located in the Northern Province. It is comprised of 17 sectors, 71 cells and 494 villages. Yanze catchment is located in the southern sectors of Ngoma and Mbogo in Rulindo district (about 30 Km from Kigali) with an approximate area of 9 700 hectares. The topography of the area is predominated by very steep hillsides whereby, during the rainy season, the runoff exacerbates land degradation due to soil erosion. Intense human activities, low crop productivity and inappropriate riverbank management lead to soil degradation and erosion.

Farming is the main occupation, including commercial production of vegetables. Some farmers produce flowers, while others generate their income from stevia. Other crops produced include banana, sweet potato and beans. According to a recent Rwanda household survey, livelihood typology in this catchment is characterized by relatively poor farmers.

FAO has previously supported the district through the Kagera Transboundary Agro-Ecosystem Management Project (Kagera TAMP). During the project, various sustainable land management (SLM) activities were implemented in the Karambo micro-catchment. After successful completion of the project, the Rulindo District sought support from FAO to upscale the best practices from the Kagera TAMP catchment, which were also in line with the SFA/FLR project implementation. The scope of the SLM best practices upscaled in the Yanze catchment was broadened and now includes agroforestry, soil and water conservation, integrated soil fertility management, crop-livestock integration, river bank protection, and participatory learning through farmer field schools. Rulindo has recently been identified as a FAO focus area, therefore additional interventions are being considered, including, irrigation, aquaculture, support to non-timber forest products and livestock management, and actions for better value chain development, enhanced nutrition and poverty reduction in the District.

38 Regional woRkshop foR afRica: synthesis RepoRt

rationale for fao interventions in yanze catchment/rulindo• To complement government efforts in protecting the Yanze river, which supplies

about 70 percent of the water to Kigali;

• Potential partnership with other stakeholders participating in protection of natural resources in this catchment area (FONERWA, STEVIA, REMA/LVEMP, NGOs etc.);

• Strong commitment of the Rulindo District leadership, whose Vice-Mayor in charge of economic affairs is a member of the Cross-Sectoral Task force for supporting sustainable agriculture and natural resources;

• Existing capacity for the catchment to supply vegetables and other food products to the Kigali city market and other potential outlets.

achievemenTs and consTrainTsParticipants identified the following strengths and constraints of the work in the Rulindo District.

strengths• Community understood challenges in the region and need for concerted efforts

• Leadership articulated community needs and the strategies required

• High potential for sustainable integration and inclusive nutrition – good entry points

• Existence of mushroom projects

• The construction of the vegetable collection center;

• Use of land, including terracing to prevent soil erosion

• Stevia plant project it has created job and empowerment of the local communities

• Inclusion of women

• Strong urban rural linkage watershed basin

• Diversification of income and livelihoods

• Strong political will and enthusiasm

• Strong government coordination of interventions

• Strong community buy-in and ownership

• Farmers group dynamics and organization

• Importance of partnerships

• Choice of very targeted tree species, to meet the specific problems (soil conservation, fruit production and good agricultural practices)

• Adaptability of crops to market needs, while improving productivity (school fields)

• Willingness to improve the chain of values by setting up production collection infrastructure

39ANNEX 7: THE RULINDO DISTRICT: DEVELOPING SCENARIOS AND ADDRESSING TRADE-OFFS

• Diversified integrated system (agriculture, livestock, etc.)

• Integration of a cash crop (stevia, job creation, etc.)

• Irrigation system

• Presence of farmer field schools

Key constraints• Inadequate beneficiary capacity (technical)

• Projects still seem top-down driven and community were basically recipients

• Livelihood options available to be integrated in the projects were not clear to the beneficiaries

• Investment in the housing/structures are not resilient and might drain gains to reconstruct

• Land under stevia looked under-utilised

• Mushroom project lack packing and storage materials

• The milk conservation is a problem

• Extension education services rendered to the community

• Lack of project framework

• Lack of market information towards mushroom harvests

• Market research in terms of quality, type of product, etc. (to understand the necessity of the Rwandan people)

• Lack coordination between ministries

• Provision of highly skilled person to assist in the project

• Low level of education

• Low capacity in farmer field schools and innovation

• Tradeoff between stevia and crops contributing to food security

• Stevia requires arbitration on land tenure in the district to preserve the diversity of farming systems

• Improving access to water for irrigation

• Lack of information on the collection of nutrition data, market demand, access and prices

• Management of water, in particular access during the dry season.

• No breeding activity is developed (poultry that can be used to fertilize vegetables)

• Difficulty to develop nurseries for agroforestry

• Lack of expertise and management tools within the group

• Lack of financial skills to determine charges, costs of production for maximizing gains

40 Regional woRkshop foR afRica: synthesis RepoRt

annex 10: counTry commiTmenTs

At the end of the workshop, participants were asked to indicate immediate actions they plan to take upon returning to their country in order to start applying the results of the workshop. Commitments are presented here, organized by country.

cameroun• Alignement de toutes les activités menées par les projets et programmes en cours

d’exécution, sur les objectifs du développement durables; élaboration des notes conceptuelles des projets identifiés lors de l’atelier et soumission au financement de la FAO (Cameroun)

côTe d’ivoire• Appuyer le développement de la chaine de valeur de la pêche et l’aquaculture par

ce que j’ai appris

• Intensification durable de la production par le développement de la petite irrigation (Côte d’ivoire)

• Faire un compte rendu de l’atelier et des principales décisions/recommandations prises, demander des rencontres régulières avec la FAO Côte d’Ivoire et les Ministères présents à cet atelier - agriculture, commerce (Côte d’Ivoire)

Kenya• Plan to work more closely with FAO and Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and

Fisheries in Kenya to work on the four priority areas. I am especially interested in business incubation to get more of the agriculture produce go through value addition and to be marketed in Kenya and the region

• Will embark on working closely with FAO-Kenya to include priority issues in the onward programme activities; will also try to align the issues of concern to be supported under the 3 financing mechanisms i.e. GEF, SSC & GCF

mali• Contribuer à mieux partager la nécessité d’appuyer les activités de développement

du secteur agricole par le Ministère des Finances (Mali)

• Restitution au département du Ministère de l’Elevage et pêche les différents points débattus et les idées retenues pour une meilleure contribution du Ministère ; je suis vraiment ravis des éléments vus et des discussions ; j’orienterais le département dans le sens de prendre en compte l’intensification, la chaine de valeur, la lutte contre la pauvreté et la nutrition (Mali)

• Après 3 jours d’information, d’intenses activités par rapport à l’agriculture durable,

55ANNEX 10: COUNTRY COMMITMENTS

agenda 2030, la priorité au retour serait de partager les grandes conclusions avec mon département, faire une séance de travail avec la FAO pour le suivi, enfin confirmer davantage l’engagement de la FAO pour l’atteinte des ODDs dans un cadre de partenariat et de dialogue (Mali)

moZambiQue• Share the workshop proceedings with colleagues; communicate the 4 priorities

support areas proposed to FAO, to the relevant staff for planning, follow-up and monitoring; identify the potential stakeholders for roll out of SDGs related to agriculture and for prioritized elements forming the workshop themes

• Share this experience with my colleagues; follow up the meeting with the trade sector and arrange a meeting with FAO Representative/Advisor of Ministry (Mozambique)

• Share the experience with the Direction of MASA (Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security); Follow up all the priorities for agriculture close to FAO Representation in Maputo; Keep in contact with the consultant in order to address well in my country the topics of the workshop

• Share important outcomes with Representative, programme and project teams; follow up with government, the finalization/confirmation of priorities identified, prepare visit from RI2 to Mozambique

rdc• Mettre à jour les données de cet atelier et vous l’envoyer incessamment (RDC)

rwanda• Contribution to help in development of honey and mushrooms value chains

towards poverty reduction and better nutrition

• Focus on value chain, poverty reduction and nutrition. To build the capacity of state of food quality safety management system to all food players

• Follow up on the nutrition actions mapping activity conducted in Rwanda. Updating this mapping will be a key preliminary task for the office of the nutrition secretariat and supporting capacity development to the secretariat in nutrition mapping will likely be a priority for FAO

• Share the resolutions and areas of common focus in terms of a shared agenda for agriculture development; advocating for joint planning, action plan setting and partnership in the implementation of the different agriculture interventions

• Start implementing the improved measures towards addressing the problems related to climate change effects based on different & interesting discussions that we have had during this three-day workshop. This will be done through workshops and trainings

• Revisit the priorities set on sustainable intensification and value chain and develop an action plan for Rwanda; sort out what is applicable for Rulindo district/focus area for Rwanda and integrate that into Rulindo implementation framework

56 Regional woRkshop foR afRica: synthesis RepoRt

Tchad• Séance de travail avec la FAO pour affiner les priorités d’appui (coordination,

partenariat, renforcement des capacités) ; suivre les démarches avec la FAO pour le cadre de suivi évaluation en rapport avec les ODDs

Zambia• Continue engaging the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock

to embrace the importance of linking social protection to agriculture (FAO Zambia)

• Communicate the deliberations & recommendations of the workshop, support any multi-sectoral initiatives in the four focus/priority areas of the contribution of agriculture to SDGs

• Review the agriculture chapter of the draft seventh national development plan (7NDP) 2017-2021 and possibly incorporate elements of intensification, value chains, poverty reduction and nutrition if they have not adequately been addressed (Zambia)

57ANNEX 10: COUNTRY COMMITMENTSThe purpose of the regional workshop “Engaging agriculture, forestry and fisheries in support to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” was to initiate a dialogue between FAO and countries in Africa on how to place food and agriculture in the SDGs on the national planning agenda; and to identify priorities for action through FAO’s Regional Initiative on “Sustainable Intensification of Production and Value Chain Development in Africa”. The four areas of focus of the workshop – sustainable intensification; value chain development; poverty reduction; and nutrition – are the pillars around which the discussions were organized.

The workshop addressed how the principles of Sustainable food and agriculture (SFA) can promote joint action to strengthen the contribution of agriculture, forestry and fisheries to sustainable development. It identified a set of concrete actions in the nine focus countries of the Regional Initiative (Mali, Democratic Republic of Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Chad, Cameroon, Rwanda, Mozambique, Kenya and Zambia), that participants would consider as priority for their country. Special attention was given to inter-sectoral governance mechanisms in order to foster more integrated and effective action. The findings of the workshop are expected to shape FAO support to countries in the framework of the Regional Initiative, as they embark on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.
