The GIVE project
The GIVE project team conducted training sessions for cooperative and group leaders on Marketing and Networking across all the six intervention sites. The training was conducted over a 12-day period, in two parts of 6 days each staggered a month apart. The training attendees included leaders of different poultry rearing and self-help groups, interim officials of newly formed farmer cooperatives and management committee members of existing farmer cooperatives. The training aimed at equipping the leaders with marketing and procurement skills core in marketing their chickens collectively and on collective acquisition of farm inputs to leverage on the economies of scale. The training also sought to link the leaders with market players who buy chickens and those who supply farm inputs as a way of ensuring sustainability of cooperatives/groups. Training on gender aimed in equipping the trainees with knowledge on the importance of considering gender aspects at the chicken production, transportation, and marketing levels.
