Support to the Preparation of the Innovation and Institutional Strengthening for Food Security Program

implementation

The objective of the technical cooperation is to support the preparation of a future Program for Innovation and Institutional Strengthening for Food Security (CH-L1171), which will seek to strengthen the functions of MINAGRI to protect and monitor essential assets (sanitary, genetic and natural resources) for food security; provide better quality services to farmers, agro-exporters and food importers; and support the digital transformation of the Servicio Agrícola y Ganadero (SAG) and the Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Agropecuarias (INIA). The TC will support the design of the Program, since it will make it possible to define the priority investments and create the necessary capacities for the supervision and evaluation of the main results (KPIs) that the Program would have. In turn, the TC will contribute to strengthening the MINAGRI's skills budget preparation process, by generating products that will make it possible to substantiate the need for certain investments, which is essential for MINAGRI to have the budgetary space to include the IDB program.
