Office of the Special Adviser on Africa

Purpose: Providing socio-economic support to community based organizations in rural areas to enable them to attain household food security. HODI aims to provide logistical, technical, and financial support to enable programme implantation.
Illustrative Project: Namwala Cattle Project: Farmers have been assisted in organizing cattle clubs for spraying livestock against ticks. Farmers selected by communities have been trained as para-vets. Each cattle club runs a revolving fund to access drugs and extension services. The project has encouraged two local traders to stock veterinary drugs. The farmers are now diversifying to other areas of socio-economic projects.
