Progress in African Food Systems: What do the Data Say?
- 15/12/2022
In anticipation of the 2022 AGRF, the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) and the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) have leveraged their existing partnership to produce this report to provide African leaders with cutting-edge data tools that can be employed to describe their nation’s food systems, diagnose the most urgent areas for action, and decide which evidence-based solutions best suit their needs.
What is Large Scale Food Fortification (LSFF)?
GAIN is launching a short animated video, packed with key facts and information about large scale food fortification. It is a great tool for advocacy and education in countries where increasing access to fortified foods is on the agenda.
GAIN Interview Cruncher - How climate change threatens nutrition and food security – and what we can do about it?
In the context of a new GAIN series on "Climate and Nutrition: Why They Need Each Other", we bring together a new episode of GAIN’s interview cruncher to hear from two of the world’s leading scientists on the impact of climate change on nutrition and food security.
GAIN Working Paper Series 29 - Using a programme impact pathway to design, monitor and evaluate interventions to commercialise biofortified crops
- 27/07/2022
Using a theory of change or a programme impact pathway to guide design, monitoring, and evaluation efforts is increasingly being used across various nutrition interventions, yet there are few documented examples in biofortification programmes.
GAIN Working Paper Series 28 - Developing strategies to commercialise biofortified crops and foods
- 26/07/2022
Biofortification (or nutrient enrichment) of staple crops has the potential to contribute to reducing micronutrient deficiencies by increasing micronutrient intakes. In 2019, GAIN and HarvestPlus entered a partnership to lead the Commercialisation of Biofortified Crops (CBC) Programme, which aims to catalyse commercial markets for biofortified crops in six countries across Africa and Asia.
GAIN Discussion Paper Series 11 - Commercialising public agricultural technologies and goods
- 25/07/2022
To inform the development of effective commercialisation strategies, a systematic assessment of country- and crop-specific value chains is essential to identify success factors, barriers, and opportunities.
