Operational since 2015, Local Development Research Institute is an action-oriented think tank whose work contributes to the efforts of African governments to end extreme poverty, end hunger and reduce inequalities. With 65% of Africa’s labor force employed in the Agricultural sector which contributes just over 30% of the continent’s GDP, and the increasing need to achieve food sufficiency for 1.5 billion people by 2020, it is clear agriculture will be pivotal to achieving these objectives. LDRI is therefore focused on the role of agricultural transformation in ending hunger, poverty and inequality especially the capability of states to have available to them the data and statistics required for decision-making on the continent. Our strategic objectives for the period 2016 to 2020 are: 1. Strengthening the Africa data ecosystem for planning, monitoring and review of interventions to drive agricultural transformation in Africa 2. Supporting inclusive processes for evidence-driven policy on Agricultural Transformation in Africa 3. Building capacity of stakeholders to make their data openly accessible to others
