The Agroforestry Technical Assistance Facility (ATAF) was created by the Moringa Partnership to provide technical assistance to businesses in need within the ecosystem of Moringa Fund investees.

Notables achivements include maximizing the impact for Fundación Nicafrance and managing an outgrower scheme strenghtening project for a Ghanian oil palm company.
