As part of FAO's overall assistance to Africa, the Investment Centre has been supporting the implementation of CAADP, the strategic agricultural framework of the African Union and the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD).

The Investment Centre has helped mobilize international and local political and financial support for CAADP. Some 30 countries and three regional economic communities have benefitted from policy assistance, investment planning, capacity development and resource mobilization. The Investment Centre has also assisted nine countries in obtaining funds from the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP).
