NGOs supporting agricultural production chain in Akkar

3-4-2018

The Rene Mouawad Foundation (RMF) participated on Tuesday in the launch of the agricultural value chain development project in Akkar (Agribusiness Ardi) funded by the EU and implemented by Expertise France in coordination with Fair Trade Lebanon and Mada Association. The event included the screening of a short documentary which included testimonies of farmers benefiting from RMF initiatives in the country, followed by a comprehensive presentation of the program and the Foundation’s projects. The three participating associations also exhibited their special ventures as part of the larger Lebanon Industry Value Chain Development (LIVCD) in Akkar. In this respect, RMF announced its project to increase the competitiveness of avocado value chains in Akkar region. The project’s technical director, Sandra Fahed, stressed that RMF seeks through the program to transfer the expertise of its specialists to Akkar due to the growing cultivation of the fruit in Lebanon by year.
