Achievements, challenges and lessons from scaling-up Orange-Fleshed Sweetpotato in Sub-Sahara Africa(Journal Article, 2021-06) Mulongo, G.; Munyua, H.M.; Mbabu, A.N.; Maru, J.This review presents results of the ex-post survey on Reaching Agents of Change (RAC) project, highlightingexperiences, lessons, challenges and recommendations for scaling up orange-fleshed sweetpotato (OFSP). TheRAC project was a three-and halfyear initiative (2011 and 2015), implemented in three primary countries, namelyTanzania, Mozambique, Nigeria, and to a lesser extent Ghana and Burkina Faso. The project advocated for policychange and increased investments to scale-up the orangefleshed sweetpotato (OFSP) to combat vitamin A defi-ciency. RAC planned to generate new investments totaling US$ 18 million for OFSP activities in the three years ofits life but exceeded this target by 20%. RAC further expected to benefit at least 600,000 households directly andis currently on track, having reached 309,974 direct beneficiaries (of whom 20.3% were women). The RACexperience demonstrated a potential scaling-up model for biofortified crops based on the hypothesis that scalingup can be achieved through supportive policies (and investments), strong institutional capacities and appropriateinnovative technologies working through a partnership of governmental and non-governmental organizations andcivil society.Item Reaching Agents of Change Project: Successes, lessons and recommendations. Ex-post evaluation report(Report, 2018-05) International Potato CenterThe ex-post evaluation assessed the experiences, achievements and lessons from the Reaching Agents of Change (RAC) project in its three primary countries of operation, namely Mozambique, Tanzania and Nigeria. RAC was a collaborative project implemented between April 2011 and August 2015, and funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The goal of the project was to contribute to the efforts to reduce vitamin A deficiency (VAD) through policy reforms, advocacy for new investments, and capacity development. Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is a critical and a widespread public health problem. CIP proved the concept that consumption and scaling up of biofortified orange-fleshed sweetpotato (OFSP) is an effective strategy for reducing VAD in children Analysis of the evaluation data shows that CIP, along with its partners, has succeeded in proving that modest amounts of OFSP consumed by children could reduce the prevalence of VAD and that farmers, but largely women, would maintain sweetpotato vines for planting and grow OFSP for consumption and local markets. For this achievement CIP and HarvestPlus shared the 2016 World Food PrizeItem Training of trainers (ToT) module on biofortification: A sustainable solution to hidden hunger.
