The primary goal of this phase is to manage the expansion and eventual phasing out of AUXFINs G50-UMVA-Expansion programme's activities. The phase will run from October 1, 2025, until July 31, 2026. The phase facilitates a transition from donor reliance toward market-oriented autonomy following the cessation of funding from the Netherlands Embassy. The project focuses on professionalizing community structures and UMVA Business Centers to enhance value chain integration and digital service delivery for over 517,000 households. Primary activities involve securing access to high-quality agricultural inputs, formalizing collective production contracts with institutional buyers, and implementing an advocacy framework to secure long-term private sector partnerships and financial sustainability.

<narrative xml:lang="en">AUXFIN's Holistic Approach to Community Activation - Burkina Faso</narrative>
The goal of the project is to realize cohesive communities in the rural areas of Burkina Faso, including vulnerable people (the young, female, internally displaced), who are actively planning their self-development based on knowledge, available in- and output market opportunities and investing their money to actively improve their livelihoods and livelihood resilience.This will be realized by:Localizing and deploying a digital platform providing knowledge and services from local businesses and markets to the farmers and building a network of groups with tablets and supported by activators to stimulate these groups to actively use the platform.Activated groups in rural areas of Burkina Faso, doing their weekly meetings, will acquire new knowledge on finance, agriculture and health while having access to financial and other services, enabling them to do targeted investments to improve their livelihoods. Working as a group together towards common goals will increase the social cohesion of the groups, while improving their financial situations, their resilience and their well-being in general.
