IITA and other Long-term EU-AU Research and Innovation Partnership for Food and Nutrition Security and Sustainable Agriculture (LEAP4FNSSA) project partners—the Association of Commonwealth University (ACU) and Greenwich University Natural Resource Institute, UK—conducted an impact and value-addition assessment study in Belgium, France, Germany, Kenya, and Uganda between June and July 2022.
The study documented the impact of using research, science, and innovation generated by the partnership between African and European research and academic institutions on improving livelihoods and development outcomes of beneficiaries, including farmers, farmers’ networks and associations, NGOs, and the organized private sector. The study also supported the overall objective of the LEAP4FNSSA project and delivered a sustainable structure or “Platform.”
