The Food & Business Global Challenges Programme (GCP) is a transdisciplinary research programme on food security. It supports the development of new products, practices and policies that improve food security in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs). Examples of projects include sustainable horticulture in Chile, improvement of the cocoa sector in Ghana, empowering women food entrepreneurs in Kenya, and efficient fishery chains in Indian cities.The programme aims to generate understanding of emerging key issues in food security and the role of the private sector. It is funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands with co-funding from NWO, the Dutch Research Council.
NWO-WOTRO Science for Global Development of the Dutch Research Councel (NWO) manages the research programme and developed the calls for proposals. This book showcases the results and findings of the fourteen projects funded in the first and second call of the Global Challenges Programme. |
