Market Development Facility (MDF) is a multi-country initiative which promotes sustainable economic development, through higher incomes for women and men, in our partner countries.
We connect individuals, businesses, governments, and NGOs with each other, and with markets at home and abroad. This enhances investment and coordination and allows partnerships to flourish, strengthening inclusive economic growth.
MDF is currently active in Fiji, Timor-Leste, Sri Lanka, Samoa, Tonga, and Vanuatu.
MDF is funded by the Australian Government. It is implemented by Palladium, in partnership with Swisscontact.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF), Samoa, recognizes the importance of effective communication in promoting agricultural extension activities, engaging stakeholders and responding to crises. To strengthen its internal communications capacity, MAF seeks to engage a qualified Media and Communications Training Provider to deliver a comprehensive training program for ten (10) selected staff.
