    Validated Terms of Reference for the Pan-African Network for the Analysis of Economic Policies (PANAP)
    (FARA, 2026-05) FARA, JRC, PANAP, AUC, EU
    This publication presents the validated Terms of Reference (TOR) for the Pan-African Network for the Analysis of Economic Policies (PANAP), developed under Work Package 7 of the StEPPFoS project. The TOR establishes the governance framework, operational principles, membership structures, and coordination mechanisms guiding the PANAP network in advancing evidence-based economic policy analysis for sustainable agri-food systems across Africa. The document defines PANAP’s mission, objectives, priority thematic areas, membership categories, governance arrangements, collaboration principles, and operational procedures. It provides institutional guidance for strengthening cooperation between African and European research institutions, policymakers, regional organisations, and development partners engaged in economic analysis of agricultural and food system policies. Developed through a consultative validation process led by FARA and the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC), the TOR reflects contributions from PANAP members, AU and EU institutions, and regional organizations. It aligns PANAP’s activities with major continental and international policy frameworks, including Agenda 2063, the Malabo Declaration, the AU-EU Innovation Agenda, the FNSSA Partnership Roadmap, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The TOR establishes PANAP as a collaborative platform for policy modelling, knowledge sharing, capacity strengthening, and research-policy engagement, thereby enhancing Africa’s institutional capacity for data-driven and evidence-informed policymaking.

    Achievements, Challenges and Lessons of the PAEPARD Multi-Stakeholder Partnerships
    (FARA, 2018-12) Sophie Reeves (WRENmedia); Jonas Mugabe (FARA); Remi Kahane (CIRAD/AGRINATURA)
    This book provides a comprehensive capitalization of PAEPARD Phase II, showcasing how demand-driven, user-led, and multi-stakeholder approaches strengthened Africa–Europe agricultural research partnerships. Through documented case studies, it demonstrates how inclusive collaboration among farmers, researchers, private sector actors, and policymakers generated innovation, improved agricultural productivity, enhanced food and nutrition security, and mobilized follow-on funding. The publication distills practical lessons to inform future agricultural research-for-development initiatives and partnership models in sub-Saharan Africa.
