| Competitiveness
and Cluster Development Strategies.
To support agribusiness and SME development, AISD helps cluster
and value chain stakeholders to identify their competitive
position in global markets and to implement pragmatic and
value chain solutions to existing constraints all along the
value chain, from end consumer to processors to primary producers.
Information
and Communications Technologies (ICT). AISD
provides demand driven solutions to making ICTs accessible,
affordable, and relevant to agribusinesses and enterprises,
while helping to build capacity in the ICT sector.
Institutional
Capacity Building. AISD works through local
firms, associations and other nongovernmental organizations
to build capacity for advocacy, strategic planning, management,
training and service delivery.
Post
Conflict Transition. AISD
principals have worked in conflict and post conflict environments
and addressed relief to development issues from the perspective
of both humanitarian and economic development organizations.
Project
Design, Monitoring and Evaluation. AISD is
adept at bringing the interests and motivations of donors,
beneficiaries, implementers and host country stakeholders
together with facts, realities and best practices in devising
pragmatic and cost effective but ambitious project designs.
AISD can assist donors and implementers to develop cost effective
performance monitoring plans and systems.
Public
Education. AISD incorporates public education
activities into its approach to ensure participation, aid
in decision making, and create access to market opportunities.
AISD offers communications strategy development, media planning
and relations, survey design, advertising and message development,
and works through local radio, television, print, Internet
and other ICTs.
Public-Private
Alliances and Partnerships. AISD has developed
models for pubic private partnerships where commercial business
strategies coincide with the objectives of development actors
including governments, donors, and non-governmental organizations.
