Secretariat Mid‐Term Strategic Direction 2014‐2018

Abstract

This document presents the Mid-term strategic direction on PACA secretariat 2014-2018. The Partnership for Aflatoxin Control in Africa (PACA) was established in 2011 as a partnership initiative based at the African Union Commission (AUC) with the mission to support agricultural development, safeguard consumer health, and facilitate trade by catalyzing, coordinating and increasing effective aflatoxin control along agricultural value chains in Africa.

PACA developed the PACA Strategy, 2013‐2022, through an inclusive process based on inputs from PACA Strategy Development – Stakeholder Consultation Workshop that was convened in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania in April 2013.PACA Community Members identified comprehensive Strategic Thematic Areas (STAs) and associated Key Result Areas (KRAs) that captured the range of activities that both the PACA Community and Secretariat would address to realize the PACA vision of “an Africa free from the harmful effects of aflatoxin”.
