baseline survey in relation to the Livestock Micro Reforms in Agribusiness (L-MIRA) project. The baseline information will be critical to measuring the success of L-MIRA project in achieving its objectives, which are: (i) to improve dairy and poultry farmers’ access to quality inputs; and (ii) to reduce regulatory compliance cost for dairy and poultry SMEs (processors, off-takers etc.). The outcome of this assignment will also be used to support policy reforms /advocacy in the future. Therefore, a firm with experience in successfully linking M&E with policy reforms and/or program improvements will have an advantage.
IFC is looking for an experienced firm specialized in impact evaluations to conduct the baseline of an impact evaluation of IFC and GAFSP (Global Agriculture and Food Security Program) invested projects in Cameroon. The IFC projects are part of a joint World Bank/IFC initiative consisting of a comprehensive public-private partnership to support the vertical integration of producer organizations (POs) of cassava, maize, and sorghum into the value chain of commercial agribusiness off-takers. IFC and GAFSP investments facilitate the critical links to private banks and to the private sector by providing risk sharing facility (RSFs) and/or loans to participating financial institutions. The evaluation is to measure impact of the projects on yields, farmer income, poverty, food security and women.
