 Inter-agency website for the exchange of information on value chains, linkages and service markets
 
0
 
Welcome to the inter-agency database on developing value chains, linkages and service markets - adopted by the Donor Committee for Enterprise Development. The site is dedicated to the results being achieved through systemic approaches, particularly in Private Sector Development.

You will find here information from hundreds of agencies, working all over the world; we welcome additional contributions.
    We have now had over 2 million page views since the site started in late 2003!

Thank you particularly to the ILO, Swiss SDC and DFID for co-financing the start-up costs of this site and of the 'sister' site on the Business Environment, at www.Business-Environment.org. Note that the ILO has recently launched a new site on Local Economic Development, at www.LEDKnowledge.org.
