The project is being carried out by the ECOWAS Commission through the Regional Agency for Agriculture and Food (RAAF), as part of the implementation of the ECOWAS regional food security storage strategy, and financed by the Agence Fran\u00e7aise de D\u00e9veloppement (AFD) and the World Bank&#8217;s FSRP. <\/p>\n<p>ECOWAS&#8217;s regional food security storage strategy is based on three complementary lines of defence: (i) local stocks managed by groups or cooperative organizations ; (ii) national food security stocks managed by States, and (iii) the Regional Food Security Reserve. <\/p>\n<p>In implementing the first phase of the project, Inades-Formation was entrusted with the task of setting up a regional training capability for stock managers, including the design of training curricula and the deployment of training courses in the field. <\/p>\n<p>This training will take place in two stages: (i) training of facilitators identified within producer organizations and meeting a certain number of criteria, and (ii) the multiplication of these training courses in the field by facilitators within relay institutions identified in the 15 ECOWAS countries and 02 CILS countries (Chad and Mauritania). <\/p>\n<p>Inades-Formation has already carried out a number of actions: (i) design of a training program (curriculum) for local stock managers, (ii) design of training modules and a facilitator&#8217;s guide; (iii) the design of an online training platform (E-learning) and digital teaching resources for training local stock managers. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>To facilitate deployment of the training at national level, 3 regional workshops are planned to train facilitators, who will deliver the training to the final beneficiaries, i.e. the elected representatives and technical executives\/managers of POs at Union\/Federation and grassroots level. Experts have been selected to lead the regional facilitator training workshops. These are thematic experts, and experts in andragogy\/adult workshop facilitation. <\/p>\n<p>The implementation of a regional training capability for local stock managers is intended to provide a lasting structure for ongoing training. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-23709 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inadesformation.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/1711020892742-web-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inadesformation.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/1711020892742-web-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.inadesformation.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/1711020892742-web-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.inadesformation.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/1711020892742-web-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.inadesformation.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/1711020892742-web.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At the opening of the workshop, Mr. Kouam\u00e9 Alphonse, on behalf of the SG of Inades-Formation, welcomed the RAAF\/ECOWAS partners and all the participants.
