A Taste of A4NH Part 1 in a Brownbag Series: An introduction to who we are & how we work

description

The CGIAR Research Program on Agriculture for Nutrition and Health (A4NH) is hosting a brownbag discussion series on our program to participants from our lead center, IFPRI. The series will cover topics about our research portfolio, how we engage with partners, and areas for scaling up research. This presentation introduces the basics of A4NH and answers our most commonly-asked-questions.

Good example of Biofortification

Actively support PHND programs and policies with new partnerships

Regional and country engagement
