PERF delivers impact through three directorates and two supporting units working across agriculture, livestock, forestry, and research.
R&I
The Research and Innovation directorate drives PERF's scientific work across Natural Resources Management, Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness, and Resource Mobilisation — generating the evidence and innovations that underpin our field programmes.
Outreach
The Outreach and Extension directorate takes PERF's research and innovations to the field — engaging farmers, pastoralists and forest communities through extension services, demonstration sites, and last-mile advisory support.
Capacity
The Capacity Building directorate designs and delivers training programmes, farmer exchange visits, and strategic partnerships that amplify PERF's reach and impact across communities.
Gender
The Gender and Advocacy supporting unit ensures PERF's programmes are inclusive, equitable, and gender-responsive, mainstreaming gender development across all activities.
Finance & HR
The Finance, HR and Administration supporting unit manages budgeting, internal audit, recruitment, and equipment management to support effective programme delivery.
