| dc.description.abstract | The EAC Partner States still suffer from challenges related to food and nutrition security and poverty despite the implementation of National Agriculture Implementation Plans which sought to actualize the objectives of the CAADP Compact between 2008 and 2016. This East African Community Regional Agriculture Investment Plan (EAC RAIP) 2017-2025 proposes key interventions required for the implementation of the EAC CAADP Compact and the EAC Food Security Action Plan I1. The EAC RAIP draws from the commitment made to transform regional economy (Chapter 18, Article 105 to Article 110 of the EAC Treaty). The Compact is a statement by the EAC for actualization of the CAADP goals as enunciated in the Maputo Declaration, 2003 and affirmation and recommitment given in the Malabo Declaration, 2014. The EAC RAIP fosters a regional approach and is an instrument for coordinating, rather than undertaking and/or duplicating, investments in the EAC Partner States as envisaged in their NAIPS. | en |
