Abstract:
This information sheet discusses the “Value chain governance and endogenous growth” process which was carried out within the framework of the Development Policy Review Network (DPRN) by the Institute of Social Studies (ISS), Wageningen University and Research Centre (WUR), Woord en Daad, ICCO, the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality, Concept Fruit BV and Hivos. The process aimed to investigate what happens when global value chains touch ground in particular development contexts. In addition, the conditions that make global value chains more inclusive to vulnerable groups were explored, such as small producers and workers in the South. The process included a writeshop, several meetings to discuss the set up and outcomes of the research with other stakeholders, and the publication of 13 research papers (to be published as a book in May 2011).
