Prioritization of rural investments is crucial for ensuring inclusive growth, sustainable development and food security. The Arab (Agricultural) Investment for Development Analyzer (AIDA) project develops an economic planning tool that will help governments and analysts in the design of evidence-based agricultural investment plans.
AIDA is a three-year project (2017-2020) that is funded by IFAD, with co-financing from CGIAR-PIM, and implemented by IFPRI and its partners with focus on Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Tunisia.
