Bukar Usman (D.V.M., M.V.S.c)‘s insight:
At the restricted RPCA meeting, held on 8-9 April 2013 at the OECD headquarters, network members discussed the final results of the 2012/13 agricultural campaign and made recommendations to protect the most vulnerable populations. The Senior Experts Group examined and approved a revised version of the regional roadmap of the Global Alliance for Resilience Initiative (AGIR). Development partners decided to establish a Co-ordinating Platform of Technical and Financial Partners (PTFP/AGIR) to support the implementation of the Alliance and facilitate the co-ordination of their actions in the area of resilience within the 17 member countries of ECOWAS, UEMOA and CILSS. The PTFP will soon elaborate an inventory of partners’ current resilience-building interventions in order to improve the co-ordination and effectiveness of actions at all levels
