Achievements
AFMA has a regular programme of training workshops and seminars and also supports other types of TCDC interchange, such as fellow exchange programme, expert exchange programme and group study tours. It organizes about 4-6 regional seminars/workshops/consultations on various aspects of food and agricultural marketing every year.
The activities are organized in various member countries on a voluntary rotation basis. After receiving offers from the members to host a particular activity, the host country is decided by the Executive Committee based on the strengths and weaknesses of that particular country on the specific subject to be discussed. Members pay for all local hosting costs. Most of them also cover foreign travel costs. Some members also make additional cash contributions beyond their membership dues.
Since establishment in 1983, AFMA organized trainings, study tours, workshops and fellow exchange programmes for more than 140 activities. The list of current and future activities are as following:
