Abstract

The importance of strong local partnerships and alliances for the sustainability and long-term success of agricultural development efforts cannot be overemphasized. This is supported by its inclusion as a standalone goal (goal 17) in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but also by increasing calls to make local partnerships and alliances integral components of development projects and programmes. Strong local partnerships are critical not only for identifying development needs, setting priorities, and driving the implementation of validated development interventions but also for scaling and sustaining impacts of such interventions.
