Value Chain Development for Decent Work A guide for development practitioners, government and private sector initiatives

The guide provides a systemic perspective, addressing not only value chain issues in the narrow sense but also important framework conditions, such as the relevance of the duration and cost of customs clearance, tariffs etc. Likewise, it addresses all relevant aspects that donors and other value chain facilitators need to take into account, including the need for institutional reform and its underlying incentive systems; issues of sustainability; the need to upscale project experiences; gender issues; etc.
