Presentation of the Revised ATWG Work Plan – FAO | Next Steps/Action points |\n| --- | --- |\n| The work plan has been structured around five core objectives designed to strengthen agricultural programming and humanitarian response. These objectives are as follows:\u003Cbr>1. Knowledge Sharing and Best Practices in Agriculture:\u003Cbr>Facilitate the collection, documentation, and dissemination of knowledge and proven practices in the agricultural sector. This includes organizing knowledge exchange forums, developing case studies, and promoting innovative and sustainable farming techniques among stakeholders.\u003Cbr>2. Improved Assessment and Evidence-Based Programming:\u003Cbr>Enhance the quality and depth of data collection and analysis to support the design and implementation of more effective and responsive agricultural programs. This involves conducting needs assessments, market analyses, and impact evaluations to inform decision-making.\u003Cbr>3. Enhanced Collaboration and Coordination:\u003Cbr>Strengthen partnerships and collaborative efforts with relevant technical working groups such as the Livestock Technical Working Group, and other humanitarian clusters including Nutrition. This is aimed at fostering integrated programming and ensuring a holistic approach to addressing agricultural challenges.\u003Cbr>4. Advocacy for Increased Funding and Better Interventions:\u003Cbr>Develop targeted advocacy campaigns to mobilize greater resources for agriculture. This includes preparing policy briefs, engaging with donors and stakeholders, and highlighting the importance of agriculture in humanitarian and development contexts. | ➢ Presentation attached here |\n\n\n| 5. Capacity Building for Humanitarian Agricultural Response:\u003Cbr>Provide training and support to humanitarian actors to enhance their ability to design and implement agricultural interventions. This includes both technical training and strategic planning support to improve response effectiveness.\u003Cbr>In addition to the above objectives, an assessment of partners' capacities will be conducted to identify existing strengths and areas for improvement. The findings from this assessment will guide the development and delivery of both online and practical (on-farm) training programs tailored to the needs of partner organizations and their members |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| 2. Partners 2025 plan for seed distribution or production – IRC | Next Steps/Action points |\n| As part of the broader work plan to strengthen agricultural activities across the country, several key initiatives have been introduced to enhance coordination, transparency, and effectiveness in seed distribution and production:\u003Cbr>1. Development of a Seed Tracking Template:\u003Cbr>A standardized template has been developed to monitor and track partners’ seed distribution and production plans across various regions of the country. This tool is intended to facilitate better planning, coordination, and reporting among stakeholders. The draft version of the template has been shared for feedback and will be revised based on comments and suggestions received from Agricultural Technical Working Group (ATWG) members. Once finalized, the updated version will be disseminated to all ATWG partners for consistent use.\u003Cbr>2. Establishment of a Seed Administration Unit:\u003Cbr>To support and regulate seed distribution and production, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security has initiated plans to establish a Seed Administration Unit at the national level. This unit will be responsible for overseeing seed quality assurance, including testing and certification. Furthermore, the Ministry intends to replicate this administrative structure at both the State and County levels, enabling decentralized and more a","cbCaij4Z1YNiYJvZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaij4Z1YNiYJvZ","pdf",202412,"English","# Meeting Agenda\n## Revised ATWG Work Plan - FAO\n## Partners 2025 Plan for Seed Distribution or Production - IRC\n## AOB and Peer Review Invitation","[{\"question\":\"Who chaired the ATWG working group meeting on May 08, 2025?\",\"answer\":\"Alira William Arkanjelo chaired the meeting.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the core objectives of the revised ATWG work plan?\",\"answer\":\"The plan focuses on five objectives: knowledge sharing and best practices, improved evidence-based programming, enhanced collaboration and coordination, advocacy for increased funding and better interventions, and capacity building for humanitarian agricultural response.\"},{\"question\":\"What seed-related initiatives are discussed for the 2025 partners plan?\",\"answer\":\"The discussion includes developing a seed tracking template, establishing a Seed Administration Unit for quality assurance and certification, and creating a national seed production database to support data-driven planning.\"}]","ATWG Working Group Meeting - May 08, 2025 - Agenda and Next Steps | PDF",1789153002]
