Costed Action Plan for SADC Industrialization Strategy and Roadmap materials beneficiation – prioritized in the Industrialization Strategy and Road Map. In doing this, there will be need to ensure that investments are adequately climate proofed and have the necessary strategies for ensuring resource use efficiency and waste and emissions reduction. b) Those such as Lesotho, Swaziland, Mauritius and Seychelles should upgrade their value chain participation by moving up-market from low-technology activities and/or developing or expanding their service sector value chains, as is already evident in Mauritius and Seychelles. c) Scale and productivity issues also play a large part in explaining the relative under-development of value chains in SADC. According to the OECD these are exacerbated by fundamental problems related to the quality of infrastructure or indeed institutions. Accordingly tackling these aspects should have a high priority. d) Gains from value chain participation do not accrue in a uniform fashion. One size does not fit all and benefits will vary in line with production technologies, market geography and the level of industrialization. e) To leverage industrialization, Member States should collaborate on specific industrialization projects, value chains and clusters. 27
