Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (ACP-EU)

The ACP-EU Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation (CTA) was established in 1983 under the Lomé Convention between the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) States and the European Union Member States.

CTA's tasks are to develop and provide services that improve access to information for agricultural and rural development, and to strengthen the capacity of ACP countries to produce, acquire, exchange and utilize information in these areas. CTA's programmes are organized around three principal themes: strengthening ACP information capabilities, promoting contact and exchange of information among partner organizations and providing information on demand.

Friends-of-the-Book Foundation

Friends-of-the-Book Foundation was established in 1993 as a non-profit making organization to help alleviate the book shortage in Africa. It does this by facilitating the publication or reprinting of key books by indigenous publishers in Africa. In this way important titles which would not otherwise be readily available at an affordable price are availed.
