with Grow Asia Partnership
Grow Asia was established in 2015 by the World Economic Forum, in collaboration with the ASEAN Secretariat, in response to the urgent need for collaborative, market-based action to transform Southeast Asia’s food system into one that is more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable. Grow Asia does this by convening global and regional public, private and civil society organizations around macro-level issues (e.g., agri-food innovation, responsible agricultural investing, women’s economic empowerment, and climate adaptation and resilience) to broker both commercial and nonprofit partnerships, share best practice, and create an ecosystem that supports pre-competitive dialogue, collaboration, and policy change. Grow Asia has invested more than US$20 million to build a regional network of multi-stakeholder partnerships which are now reaching close to 2.5 million smallholders with market-driven solutions. The Grow Asia network comprises our regional office in Singapore and six national chapters – which we refer to as our Country Partnerships – in Cambodia, Indonesia, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines and Viet Nam. In 2020, Grow Asia was accredited as an Entity Associated with ASEAN. The accreditation recognizes the important role Grow Asia plays in the region, particularly in facilitating multi-stakeholder partnerships for more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable food systems in our region.
The Cambodia Partnership for Sustainable Agriculture (CPSA) was launched by Grow Asia in May 2016 in partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF), and with support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA). CPSA is an inclusive platform for networking and best practice exchange, the promotion of sectoral and market system transformation, and the development of agricultural value chains that are better equipped to support profitable, scalable smallholder enterprises.
