Challenge 1: Improving access to safe and nutritious food

Sammanfattning

Ensuring food security is crucial for sustainable development and poverty reduction, especially in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Smallholder farmers, who produce most of the food in these regions, face challenges like post-harvest losses, limited market access, and food safety issues. These problems directly affect health, economic stability, and well-being, with women being particularly vulnerable due to social and economic factors. In response to these challenges, the AgriFoSe2030 programme has developed a portfolio of science translation projects to improve access to safe and nutritious food for consumers by reducing post-harvest losses, enhancing food safety, and connecting smallholder farmers to markets.
