The Local Capacity Development Facility (LCDF) aims to empower local organizations by providing demand-driven capacity development services. The initiative seeks to address barriers such as limited access to resources and a supply-driven approach in the agricultural sector. By fostering entrepreneurship and creating a supportive environment for local SMEs, LCDF enhances governance and effective funding management. Key activities include needs assessments, proposal writing support, and partnerships aligned with national SME policies to ensure sustainable growth and development.
