Organizational Setting
As part of FAO’s effort to strengthen One Health workforce at community level, NSAH-CJW is implementing the project “Empowering veterinary paraprofessional entrepreneurs”, in Uganda, Nigeria and South Africa. This project builds on a first phase of implementation between 2021-2023 and aims to deliver and evaluate a model for sustainable last mile animal health service delivery through capacity development of private sector veterinary paraprofessionals (VPPs), and by addressing bottlenecks within the business environment. Gender-sensitive programming is an essential part of the project. Women make up 60% of poor smallholder livestock farmers and are therefore a key target group for last mile animal health services.
The project is centred around four complementary outcomes:
• Outcome 1: Strengthened veterinary paraprofessional businesses providing gender responsive preventive healthcare services.
• Outcome 2: Increased pool of continuous professional development compliant and registered veterinary paraprofessionals
• Outcome 3: Improved business climate for veterinary paraprofessionals
• Outcome 4: Increased awareness of private sector preventive healthcare veterinary paraprofessional business model for improved access to animal health services
