Thank YouPolicy research and advocacy is critical to helping policymakers reduce the levels of poverty and hunger in Africa.
In the last 10 years, FANRPAN has developed a strong and inclusive network at the forefront of the agricultural debate in sub-Saharan Africa.
We want to increase the visibility of the available research evidence to boost progress towards solving global agenda of food security and agriculture.
Partnership will play a key role in helping us bring our messages to global audiences
