LEAP4FNSSA - Upscaling private sector participation and science-based outreach in West Africa

The Long-term Europe-Africa Research and Innovation Partnership for Food and Nutrition Security and Sustainable Agriculture (LEAP4FNSSA) is a network of African and European funders and research institutions to engage in partnerships for research and innovation on Food and Nutrition Security and Sustainable Agriculture (FNSSA). The general objective of LEAP4FNSSA is to establish a sustainable platform for the efficient and coherent implementation of the AU-EU Research and Innovation Partnership as described in the AU-EU Roadmap on FNSSA.

LEAP4FNSSA seeks to improve the effectiveness of the AU-EU FNSSA Partnership by contributing to the creation of strategic FNSSA Alliances in research and innovation, which are multi-actor networks jointly planning and initiating a process to launch research embedded into ongoing developments in Western Africa. The network has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
