Our Work
Projects
Our projects are diverse but use a systemic lens which understands that one part of an agricultural system is dependent on the effective functioning of others. Private agribusiness will be affected by the actions of policymakers and vice versa, so our project design and implementation approaches take these interlinkages into account.

ABOUT DEVPACT
We design, implement, and manage short- and long-term development projects in sub-Saharan Africa. An important aspect of our work is to assess the impact of our interventions, identifying exit strategies that ensure sustainability of interventions initiated during project implementation.
Our work is rooted in detailed research and understating of agricultural value chains. Using the market systems development lens, we assist our development partners to better understand their sectors of operation through rigorous research and analysis. For maximum impact and buy-in from partners and beneficiaries, our preferred approach to project design is to co-develop activities and solutions with partners and value chain actors. This approach ensures ownership and commitment to activities during and post implementation. We support the implementation and management of multi-country projects and programmes as part of consortia on the African continent. We test the success or failure of intervention theories of change (post implementation); the sustainability of interventions and their scalability beyond the funding cycle.
