The Agriculture and Rural Development sector provides services across a broad spectrum of thematic areas. In agriculture, this includes agribusiness development and green growth, the promotion of resilient agri-food systems, food security and nutrition, as well as agro-ecology and climate-smart agriculture. Further focus is placed on the sustainable management of natural resources, including soils, water, and biodiversity, alongside comprehensive sector analysis and policy development.

In the area of rural development, services address rural economic development, the empowerment of women and youth in local planning processes, and support for integrated water resources management. Additional expertise covers energy efficiency, the promotion of renewable energies, and the implementation of climate policies such as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).

Rural infrastructure is a foundation for significantly improving the quality of human life and accelerating the process of agricultural development. We support our clients in organisational development, institutional and financial strengthening and training, and project implementation and evaluation to assist them in their endeavours to achieve sustainability in their projects. With our services, we contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on “No poverty – SDG 1”, “Zero Hunger – SDG 2”, “Clean Water and Sanitation – SDG 6”, “Affordable and Clean Energy – SDG 7” and “Climate Action – SDG 13”.
