| dc.description | This deliverable report forms part of Work Package 1 (WP1) under the StEPPFoS initiative funded by the European Union Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme (Grant Agreement No. 101136770). The publication documents the establishment of a centralized database intended to support evidence-informed policymaking, monitoring, collaboration, and knowledge management across African and European food systems initiatives. Key components of the report include: Development of a database covering: Agrifood projects and programmes, Policies and roadmap activities, Data systems and repositories, Economic and modelling tools Integration of findings from: Institutional surveys, Desk reviews, National stakeholder validation exercises, Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) Mapping of thematic areas such as: Food security, Sustainable agriculture, Climate resilience, Rural livelihoods, Agricultural innovation Analysis of: Governance arrangements, Institutional coordination mechanisms, Funding patterns and donor dependency, Research-to-policy translation processes, Capacity-building and implementation systems Recommendations for: Open interoperable platforms, Knowledge management and MEL systems, Evidence synthesis and policy timing, Regional inclusion and collaboration, Sustainability and risk management frameworks The report emphasizes that effective agrifood policy implementation depends on institutional clarity, predictable financing, coordinated delivery systems, operational data infrastructures, and continuous learning processes. It further highlights the importance of aligning research outputs with policy cycles and strengthening subnational implementation capacities to improve policy uptake and sustainable impact across African agrifood systems. The publication is intended for policymakers, researchers, development practitioners, donor agencies, regional organizations, and institutions engaged in agricultural transformation, food systems governance, evidence-based policymaking, and knowledge management in Africa and Europe. | |
| dc.description.abstract | This 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. | |
