Project description
Growing EU-Africa partnerships for sustainable agriculture
More production, less waste. This is the goal of global agriculture practices and food systems. Sustainable agricultural development is key for food and nutrition security. The EU-funded LEAP4NSSA project will provide a partnership mechanism for European and African research and innovation actors. As a Coordination and Support Action, LEAP4FNSSA aims to increase synergies and coherence between institutions (both public and private), projects, initiatives and programmes, funders and other actors to improve scaling and impact. Bringing together 35 partners from 23 countries, the project will develop a learning environment, a large knowledge base including monitoring and evaluation, create communication channels and develop strong research and policy linkages to spearhead the establishment of a long-term sustainable bicontinental platform.
