Overview :

The Lesotho Supplier Development Programme and Green Value Chains Project (LSDP/GVC) are projects through which the United Nations Development Programme(UNDP) seeks to contribute to the national recovery agenda, by promoting green economy through value chains. The project is intended to build capacity and resilience of the local agricultural sector to produce and supply the local market through sustainable production, processing, and marketing processes.

UNDP is therefore looking for services of a management and business support services consultancy firm or organization to design a programme that addresses the capacity training needs of farmers obtained from the rapid assessment and diagnostics studies in reference. The design of the programme will be premised on the profile of farmers that participated in the LSDP Diagnostic Study, findings from the value chains and digitization assessments, as well as the established capacity needs of the target farmers, to ensure relevance and applicability. The programme targets the 120 smallholder farmers enlisted in the project but will be delivered in cohorts of 40 beneficiaries per session based on their profiles and observed capacities. The selected service provider will also be required to facilitate access to finance from the menu of financing instruments available at participating financial services providers (FSP) or partners.
