EUROPEAN DONOR REVIEW: EUROPEAN AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE TO SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA (2010)

In sub-Saharan Africa, more than 200 million people are undernourished. Africa is also home to 15 of the 16 countries where the prevalence of hunger has exceeded 35%.

This review seeks to create an online tool for better understanding of European donor support for agricultural development in sub-Saharan Africa. It is an initial attempt to map the activities, political and financial commitments of fourteen different European donors.

The background and rationale  introduces the thinking that influenced the development of this review.

The section on donor institutions and initiatives sets out the institutional landscape for each donor reviewed. The agricultural assistance data is an overview of donor commitments and disbursements on agricultural development to sub-Saharan Africa based on OECD Development Assistance Committee data. A paper on this data can be accessed below and here.
