Empowering Women. Transforming Agriculture. Innovation. Climate Resilience. Access
Supporting and empowering women to thrive across agricultural systems and value chains by strengthening their digital and climate resilience skills, building their leadership capacity, and enhancing access to markets.
About Us
Established in 2009 by its founder and Chairman/Chief Executive Officer, Furera Isma Jumare, MicroDevelopment Consulting Limited (MDCL) began as a multidisciplinary firm offering research, project management, and capacity development solutions to address complex development challenges in Nigeria, across different sectors.
In 2025, MDCL refined its strategic focus—transforming into a specialised consulting firm committed to advancing women’s empowerment in agriculture. By narrowing its scope to agricultural systems and value chains, MDCL bridges the gap in the delivery of tailored, impact-driven solutions that yield measurable outcomes.
