Evidence-based communication platform: Sustainable Trade Hub

Evidence-based communication platform 'Sustainable Trade Hub'. Design and operate an interactive platform on the linkages between agricultural trade, markets, investments, environmental sustainability and human well-being. The platform provides data, information and insights at a global scale to relevant stakeholders (policymakers, researchers, analysts and citizens) about global agricultural trade, sustainability and investments, data from MATS case studies and relevant external resources. It offers analytics and visualization functionalities and allows users to build their data stories and share them within the platform and with their broader communities, thereby enhancing the discourse and communication between stakeholders. The Sustainable Trade Hub also includes a project-internal area aimed at fostering the exchange of information, analysis and discussion among project partners
