Introduction and background
Agriculture remains the backbone of Burundi’s economy, employing a significant proportion of the population and contributing to national food security, livelihoods, and economic development. The Government of Burundi is actively pursuing agricultural transformation, including among others strengthening agricultural advisory services, promoting sustainable pest management, improving export competitiveness, and enhancing plant health systems.
Supporting these efforts, a high-level study visit to the Netherlands is being organised for senior government officials from the Ministry of Environment, Agriculture and Livestock (MINEAGRIE), accompanied by representatives from the
PlantwisePlus Burundi
project implemented by CABI.
The Netherlands provides a highly relevant model for agricultural transformation. Despite its relatively small geographic size, it is one of the world’s largest exporters of agricultural products. Its success is widely attributed to the so-called
“Dutch Diamond” approach
, which emphasises strong collaboration between government, private sector, research institutions, and civil society.
The study visit aims to expose the Burundian delegation to this integrated agricultural innovation system and facilitate learning from Dutch institutions across these four pillars.
To ensure effective planning, coordination, and delivery of the visit programme, CABI intends to engage a Netherlands-based organisation to support the mission.
Objectives of the Assignment
The overall objective of this assignment is to support the planning, coordination, and facilitation of a
7-day high-level study visit in the Netherlands
for a Burundian government delegation. The working language for the delegation will be French. CABI staff will cover translation from English (or Dutch) as needed.
The coordination partner will ensure that the visit programme is well organised, logistically efficient, and aligned with the learning objectives of the visit.
Specific objectives
The assignment will aim to:
Facilitate engagement with relevant Dutch institutions across government, private sector, research institutions, and civil society
Coordinate meetings and institutional visits aligned with the study visit learning objectives
Provide local logistical coordination to ensure smooth implementation of the visit
Support effective interaction and knowledge exchange between the Burundian delegation and Dutch stakeholders.
