This guide, a collaboration between NVA and Deloitte Global, offers practical recommendations to national and global leaders on building and strengthening country partnerships in agriculture. It draws on best practices and lessons learned from 19 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, where partnerships catalyzed and supported by NVA have benefitted 9.6 million farmers to date. The approach described in this guide serves as a framework for action that can be adapted to any local context, and can evolve over time.
