General

Peru's coffee and cocoa sectors are more resilient, sustainable, and inclusive, helping to generate a decent income for agricultural producers and entrepreneurs, including women and youth, while increasing the availability of sustainably produced food. The program focusses on 3 working lines aiming at making the coffee and cocoa sectors in Peru more resilient, sustainable, and inclusive, contributing to generate a decent income for agricultural producers and entrepreneurs, paying special attention to women and youth, while increasing the availability of food produced in a sustainable way: 1. Producers and POs achieve environmentally, socially, an economically sustainable coffee and cocoa production. 2. Companies and Professional Organizations of Farmers (POs), including women, youth, actively participate in inclusive markets. 3. Multi-stakeholder platforms create a enabling environment through public and private policies for sustainable and inclusive coffee and cocoa sectors. The new program 2022-2026 extends the coverage and work with new approaches to the current program. We propose working with new partners, while the current partners with whom we are moving to closure, will play a more "coaching" role for the new ones; we are advancing on the basis of lessons learned by strengthening the area 'enabling environment', with greater participation in collective spaces which would not be possible without the evidence of the current program. We maintain the interventions on the ground with the perspective of strengthening the dialogue between political advocacy and field actions, where we will work with other producer organizations and their customers. In addition to Cajamarca we add the Region of San Martín in cocoa and strengthen the work in the region of Junín (coffee, cocoa and FSC). Focus on decent income will allow us to guide strategies and achievements regarding resilient production, inclusive business, and public-private work towards closing the income gap that allows for improved food, decent housing, the satisfaction of basic needs (health and education) as well as a contingency fund that allows producers to overcome disruptive situations.
