Consultancy Service for the Organization of the AYuTe Rwanda Challenge Pitch Event. 

Background

Heifer International's mission is to end hunger and poverty while caring for the Earth. For 75 years, we have provided livestock and sustainable agricultural training to struggling communities around the world. Heifer International currently works in 21 countries, including the United States, supporting local food producers to expand their businesses and earn a living income.

Heifer International began operations in Rwanda in 2000, implementing a small-scale dairy development project. Heifer International Rwanda's primary focus is to increase farmers' incomes, improve their family nutrition status, empower rural women, strengthen community resilience, mobilize farmers, and improve social capital. This is achieved through capacity building, promoting sustainable agricultural practices, establishing links to the dairy value chain, strengthening market links for small livestock chain actors, and enhancing livestock quality through artificial insemination services.

Over the past 22 years, Heifer International Rwanda has collaborated with the Government of Rwanda and partners such as USAID, UNDP, African Development Bank, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, International Fund for Agriculture Development (IFAD), Innovate UK and Green Mountain Coffee to implement various projects impacting over 1.4 million households. Heifer International Rwanda also collaborates closely with the Rwandan government through the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources to establish several Public-Private-Producer Partnerships (4Ps).

In 2021, Heifer International announced the inaugural Agriculture, Youth and Technology (AYuTe) Africa Challenge to spark tech innovations for African farmers and since then Heifer International is committed to investing more than $1.5 million (USD) to accelerate digital agriculture entrepreneurship in Africa. The Agriculture, Youth and Technology (AYuTe) Africa Challenge awards cash grants to support promising young Agri-tech innovators across Africa who are using technology to reimagine farming and food production across the continent.

The main objective of this tender is to identify the ideal event company to organize a successful Pitch Event to award the winning start-up or innovator with an idea that has potential to address challenges of small holder farmers in the agriculture sector in Rwanda.
