Mauritania - Project to promote Gender-Sensitive Agricultural Value Chains and Women's Entrepreneurship in support of the Agricultural Transformation Support Program in Mauritania (PCVASGEF-PATAM)

About this project

The PCVASGEF is an investment operation that focuses on the empowerment of women and adaptation to climate change by targeting the inclusive promotion of the market gardening sector (considered the female sector par excellence in Mauritania). It is part of the Support Program for Agricultural Transformation in Mauritania (PATAM) financed by the ADF, the NTF and the IDB and is in good articulation with the orientations of the Rural Sector Development Strategy (SDSR) 2025 of the country and the Bank’s “Feed Africa” Strategy. The project is consistent with the options of the PATAM structuring program mobilizing in addition to the Bank Group and several financial partners (IDB and GEF). The project thus scales up the value chain (CV) development actions already initiated by placing specific emphasis on the empowerment of women in the Brakna and Trarza regions. The project contributes to climate finance, with 10 million USD of the total approved amount dedicated to adaptation.
