![]() ![]() With that approach the Small Fish for Food project addresses SDG2 (Zero hunger), which aims to achieve food security and promote sustainable agriculture, and SDG14 (Life below water), promoting the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources. Following a value chain (food system) approach, the Small Fish for Food project conceptualises advantages of Small Indigenous Fish Species (SIS) utilisation as well as highlights barriers and societal consequences of a constrained access to this important food resource. Fisheries are almost invisible in strategies to achieve SDG2 and nutrition and food security are not the primary focus in SDG14, which also does not mention freshwater resources that play a dominant role in African fisheries. Technical, institutional and socio-cultural transitions are required to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs). Lastly, the research analyses how lessons learned in these two projects are shared into the Dutch-based Food & Business Knowledge Platform. The practitioners-driven Treefarms project in Ghana.īoth projects are financed by NWO-WOTRO, under the Global Challenge Programme (GCP) and Applied Research Fund (ARF) respectively.The researchers-driven Inclusive Value Chain Collaboration (Inclusive VCC) project in Ghana and South Africa.The project comprises a systematic literature review (SLR) and empirical research on knowledge exchange and joint learning in two farmer-centered projects. Such platforms function as important vehicles to address challenges related to agriculture, food security and sustainable and inclusive development. This research project aims to unravel processes of knowledge exchange, co-creation and brokering in multi-stakeholder platforms. However, it is insufficiently clear what contextual factors and institutional dynamics affect multi-actor and cross-sector learning and whether it leads to research uptake and sustainable institutional change. Multi-stakeholder platforms are increasingly seen as important vehicles to address challenges related to agriculture, food security and sustainable and inclusive development. ![]() GID hosts the Centre for Sustainable Development Studies and chairs the social-science Centre for Maritime Research, each stimulating the vibrant intellectual exchange of knowledge through their biennial conferences and associated academic journals, newsletters and publication series. Centre for sustainable development studies and Centre for Maritime Research Such dynamics include feedback loops at primary, secondary and tertiary levels. The reason for doing this is that drivers of change and development processes emerge and interact at all scale levels in unpredictable ways. The team focuses on the strategic issues of multi-level (glocal) governance and inclusive development. You can find more information on these themes in the full strategy document linked below. Governance for environmental justice in the Anthropocene.It thereby emphasizes that development pathways are affecting and affected by ‘planetary boundaries’ and climate change. ![]()
