Our work with rural entrepreneurs has been greatly strengthened by the support and collaboration of key government agencies. These institutions have played an instrumental role in creating an enabling environment for rural enterprise development—through policy support, resource mobilization, and technical guidance. Together, we are working to reduce post-harvest losses, promote value addition, and open new market channels for local producers. UGBS NEST is proud to partner with government bodies that share our commitment to inclusive growth and sustainable rural innovation.
