Comment le PASDeR 3 transforme les organisations socio-professionnelles au Bénin
Qu’est-ce qui permet aux organisations paysannes de passer du statut de bénéficiaires passifs à celui d’acteurs moteurs de leur propre développement agricole ? Au Bénin, le PASDeR 3 a consacré cinq ans à répondre à cette question. Sur cette période, le programme a soutenu près de 49 000 exploitations familiales paysannes, généré l’équivalent de 43,2 millions USD de revenus supplémentaires et créé plus de 70 600 emplois équivalents temps plein — tout en faisant évoluer les organisations socio-professionnelles de bénéficiaires à prestataires de BDS. La dernière étude de cas de la série Apprentissage vers l’Action de l’AMEA documente ce qui a fonctionné, ce qui doit encore progresser, et ce que cela signifie pour la mise à l’échelle des approches BDS en Afrique de l’Ouest.
How PASDeR 3 has transformed agricultural unions in Benin
What does it take to move farmer organizations from passive aid recipients to active drivers of their own agricultural economies? In Benin, PASDeR 3 has spent five years finding out. Over that period, the programme supported nearly 49,000 smallholder family farms, generated USD 43.2 million in additional revenue, and created more than 70,600 full-time equivalent jobs — while shifting agricultural unions from beneficiaries to BDS providers. The latest case study in AMEA’s Learning into Action series documents what worked, what still needs attention, and what it means for scaling BDS-led approaches across West Africa.
