Item Database of PANAP & FNSSA Roadmap Activities, Data and Modelling Tools(FARA, 2026-05) FARAThis report presents Deliverable D1.4 of the StEPPFoS project, focusing on the development of a comprehensive database of projects, programmes, policies, roadmap activities, data systems, and modelling tools related to agrifood systems across Africa. The database integrates information from PANAP and non-PANAP institutions and provides a structured framework for mapping thematic priorities, implementation mechanisms, policy linkages, and institutional collaboration patterns. The report combines survey findings, desk reviews, validation exercises, and Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) to generate insights into governance structures, financing mechanisms, institutional coordination, evidence-to-policy pathways, and implementation capacity within African agrifood systems. It highlights the importance of interoperable data systems, sustained institutional learning, regional collaboration, and evidence-aligned policymaking to support sustainable food systems transformation in Africa.Item Mapping Existing Policies/Projects/Programmes of the PANAP Network: Assessing Institutional Collaboration, Funding Focus, Economic Data and Modelling Tools(FARA, 2026-05) FARAThis report presents a comprehensive mapping of policies, projects, and programmes implemented by institutions within and outside the PANAP network under the StEPPFoS initiative. Using cross-sectional online surveys, desk reviews, and social network analysis, the study assesses institutional collaboration patterns, thematic focus areas, funding mechanisms, economic data usage, and modelling practices across African Union (AU) and European Union (EU) institutions. The findings show that most projects focus on food systems, agroecology, climate resilience, food security, and poverty reduction, reflecting priorities within EU–AU development cooperation frameworks. The report identifies strong engagement from African institutions, particularly in West and East Africa, but highlights disparities in institutional capacity, policy integration, and long-term project sustainability. It further demonstrates the importance of regional and international collaboration, institutional alignment with mandates, and evidence-based policymaking for sustainable food systems transformation in Africa.
