This document proposes a framework for evaluating enabling factors for enterprise development in rural agroforestry systems in sub-Saharan Africa. It identifies 8 key enabling factors: strong households, group capacity, private sector engagement, markets, support services, knowledge sharing, infrastructure, and enabling policies. These factors are classified into those that increase grassroots capacity, link groups to markets and services, and create a conducive environment. The framework is being piloted in East Africa to develop intervention strategies for each factor and create tools to apply the framework. The goal is to promote diversified incomes and employment through market-oriented agroforestry enterprises.
