Company Description

SNV is a not-for-profit international development organization that applies practical know-how to make a lasting difference in the lives of people living in poverty. We use our extensive and long-term in-country presence to apply and adapt our top-notch expertise in agriculture, energy, and WASH to local contexts. SNV has an annual turnover of €130 million, over 1,250 staff in more than 25 countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. We are proud to be a not-for-profit organization that uses project financing to implement our mission. This requires us to work efficiently and to invest in operational excellence.

In its new Strategic Plan period (2019 – 2022), SNV will more explicitly aim for systems change during project preparation and implementation - by strengthening institutions and kick-starting markets that help many more to escape poverty beyond our projects. We will continue to position ourselves as a premium organization, with decentralized management. For more information on our operations in Uganda and SNV generally visit our website: www.snv.org

Background to the Project

The Sustainable Energy for Small Holder Farmers (SEFFA) in Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda’’ is a multi-country project with duration of three years (2021-2023) and implemented by GIZ, SNV and RVO and co-financed by the IKEA Foundation’ s partnership with Energizing Development (EnDev). The project focuses on addressing the core problem of the lack of access to sustainable and affordable energy technologies and services for productive use of energy (PUE) based on scalable and innovative business cases, which is preventing smallholder farmers and related local businesses of the agricultural value chains to achieve increased productivity, higher income and improved climate resilient and food- secure livelihoods.

SNV Uganda is implementing the project in the Dairy value chain with emphasis on cooling of milk and its products in the South-Western Uganda. The project focus areas are Isingiro, Kiruhura, Ntungamo, Kazo, Mbarara and Lyantonde districts.

To stimulate demand and awareness on PUE technologies in cooling of milk and milk products, SNV plans to establish demonstrations centres both at a Dairy Cooperative and at sites of 2 women/youth farmers group. The set-up demonstration centres will be the learning centres by other dairy farmers in a bid to increase adoption of such technologies.
