Guiding sector transformation: The case of integrated seed sector development in Ethiopia

This document aims to disentangle the success of the programme Integrated Seed Sector Development in Ethiopia (ISSD Ethiopia) and its approach towards facilitating systemic change. It shares lessons learned with those who strive to guide sector transformation elsewhere. The case study begins in 2018 at the pinnacle of the programme, and the efforts are described. The authors look specifically at the achievement of the new seed policy and the national strategic document entitled ‘Transforming the Ethiopian seed sector: issues and strategies’.
