Effect study of Auxfin - G50/UMVA expansion program in Burundi
The G50/UMVA Expansion Programme shows early successes in fostering social cohesion, digital inclusion, and improved agricultural planning, particularly among youth. While tools like AgriCoach are widely used and appreciated, significant challenges remain in market linkages, financial integration, and equitable tablet access, limiting the programme's overall impact on agricultural production and income. Recommendations include strengthening AUXFIN's training, monitoring systems, and partnerships, while addressing systemic bottlenecks to unlock the programme's full potential.
