ELPS Initiative: Sustainable Coffee Production Project in Tanzania Launch Event

09.00-10.00 CET (16.00-17.00 Japan time)

As part of the Enhanced Linkages between Private sector and Small-scale producers (ELPS) initiative, IFAD has joined forces with Japan's Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and two Japanese companies — UCC and Marubeni — to form a new public-private partnership. This joint investment project will enhance the sustainability of the coffee value chain and to support small-scale coffee producers in Tanzania. 

This event will introduce ELPS  –  the 2023 Japanese G7 Presidency initiative – as a new public-private partnership model. Through a panel discussion, we aim to discuss what role the private sector can play in global agricultural development and what can be done to further promote private sector involvement and investment in rural areas of developing countries.
