    Report on Functionality of PANAP CollabNet Platform
    (FARA, 2026-05) FARA, LifeWatch ERIC, PANAP, EU
    This report presents a comprehensive overview of the PANAP Network4Collaboration Platform developed under the StEPPFoS project to strengthen collaboration, networking, and knowledge exchange among members of the Pan-African Network for Economic Analysis of Policies (PANAP). The platform serves as a virtual collaborative environment connecting researchers, policymakers, development practitioners, and stakeholders from Africa and Europe working on food and nutrition security and sustainable agriculture. The publication documents the participatory and co-creation approach used in the platform’s development, beginning with stakeholder workshops and requirements assessments conducted with key PANAP members. User feedback informed the design of core functionalities including multilingual navigation, networking tools, collaborative workspaces, a marketplace for opportunities and events, resources repositories, and training modules. The report further outlines the technical implementation, stakeholder validation processes, onboarding and training activities, and mitigation strategies addressing barriers such as poor internet connectivity, language diversity, low engagement, and data security concerns. The PANAP CollabNet Platform is positioned as a strategic digital infrastructure supporting evidence-based policymaking, collaborative research, capacity building, and transcontinental partnerships within sustainable food systems governance.
