SNRD Africa – Sector Network Rural Development in Africa

WHO WE ARE

SNRD Africa is a network of local and international GIZ professionals working in the rural development sector in Africa. In essence, it is a profound knowledge sharing hub that promotes capacity development and better project management practice.

The Sector Network Rural Development Africa spans over virtually all aspects of rural development, including sustainable natural resources management and the impact of climate change on agriculture. Sustainable economic development and good governance are considered fundamental factors in this context as well.
