Ekanath Khatiwada
The Netherlands Development Organization (SNV)
Advisor, Economic Development
Mission: 
To empower local community and develop self-sustain economic situation in poor and conflict affected community.

I have been engaged in micro enterprise development for over 10 years, worked with SNV and UNOPS/UNDP as a local economic development Advisor / value chain practitioner in Asia. Currently, I am working in SNV South Sudan office as an Economic Development Advisor.

As a personal interest, I am keen to share my practical experience to this Enterprise Development Exchange network and would like to learn more from other practitioners/ Global value Chain Gurus(experts) .

The SEEP Network has been one of the best knowledge resource / platforms for my professional growth from where I have benefited a lot. I am using the SEEP publications and learning cases as a guiding document on value chain development. I had an opportunity to share my field level successful cases for the recent SEEP publication- “Market development in post conflict environment.”

Where I Practice: 
Africa and Asia
Question I’d Like to Discuss: 
How can we benefit the poor and conflict-affected through value chain development approaches? How can we make win-win situations in weak market situations?
