RegenerAction Guinea: Agroecological Transition and the Creation of New Opportunities

About this project

In Guinea, inadequate nutritional knowledge and opportunities for agricultural diversification, in the context of gender inequality and natural resource degradation, are at the root of high levels of chronic malnutrition and food insecurity, as well as rural-urban migration and out-migration, even in the face of growing urban demand for nutritious and healthy food, which farmers grouped in producer organisations (POs) are unable to meet. However, there are good experiences of PO services in high-potential agricultural supply chains and sustainable management of land, water and seed resources, albeit poorly documented and not yet leading to real transformation of food systems. As a result, there is a window of opportunity to support agroecological food and nutrition security pathways and to strengthen the capacity of producer organisations (POs) to more decisively pursue regenerative agricultural pathways with the help of digital transformation and effective marketing, as well as to support data-driven food policies of agroecological transition and new development and employment opportunities in key supply chains such as rice and horticulture for food sovereignty and nutrition security. International and local partners working in Guinea and the target areas (Fouta Djallon, Bofa and Cankan) have recognised expertise in implementation, development and research : LVIA in sustainable food systems, in training and support processes, and at the thematic level in agro-ecological hor…
