How to Participate in ADCP

Who Can Join

Primary Participants

ADCP is anchored in national dairy institutions, reflecting its mandate as a country-led, continental intelligence and coordination platform. Primary participation in the pilot phase is open to:

  • National dairy associations
  • National dairy boards, regulatory bodies or equivalent apex dairy institutions
  • Apex dairy institutions formally recognised at national level
  • In countries without private sector-led associations: designated public dairy authorities

What Participation Requires

Participation during the pilot phase is voluntary, non-binding and free, and is designed to be light-touch while enabling meaningful engagement.

Nominate a Focal Point

Designate one institutional representative as the primary coordination contact with the ADCP Secretariat.

Submit an EOI

Complete a simple, non-binding Expression of Interest indicating your institution, country and areas of interest.

Engage in Activities

Participate in consultative discussions, peer learning events and contribute to data products where feasible.

Provide Feedback

Share input on program priorities, design and value delivery — helping shape the program from within.

Important

No membership fees apply during the pilot phase. Submission of an EOI does not imply any financial, legal or institutional obligation, nor does it constitute a commitment to future participation beyond the pilot period.

What You Will Receive

Market Intelligence

Continental dairy market briefs, benchmarking data and the Africa Dairy Outlook Report.

Policy Alerts

Early visibility on tariffs, standards, trade agreements and climate regulations affecting dairy competitiveness.

Peer Learning

Structured virtual learning events and direct exchanges with national dairy institutions across Africa.

Institutional Co-Design

A seat at the table in designing the governance and services of a future continental dairy body.

Continental Voice

Enhanced national credibility and representation in regional, continental and global dairy dialogues.

Reduced Duplication
