DNA-BILD aims to impact resource-poor, opportunity-constrained stakeholders across the dairy value chain that would otherwise not be engaged by TI3P, particularly women and youth, to enable inclusive, climate-smart, economic, and innovative development in the dairy sector. This will be achieved by a) growing consumer demand, b) driving enterprises to full potential, c) increasing farmer productivity and sustainability, and d) strengthening the operating environment.
