It is Time to Change
The ReSAKSS website was officially launched in early 2009. In the past three years, it has been used as one of ReSAKSS main tools to inform planning, dialogue and review processes under CAADP. The data visualization tool, the main draw to the website, has been very useful in tracking progress of countries in several key development indicators.
As countries enter the operational stage of CAADP investment program design and execution mostly starting in 2011, more country-specific data and knowledge products are needed. Because regional agricultural strategies have been identified to fill specific gaps in development agenda and to facilitate scale economies, it is important to also have more data and knowledge products that are organized accordingly. For example, in addition to having data values for the entire continent and for sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) as a whole, groupings by regional economic cooperation and others reflecting resource endowment and pathways of development will be important.
To better meet these needs and to continue the development of ReSAKSS into a leading one-stop shop for strategic and operational information for the planning and implementation of agricultural and food security investment plans at all levels, the website needs to be improved in several areas. Please read the requirements for more details.
