| dc.description.abstract | There are many challenges in African countries' food systems, including food insecurity and nutrition, which can be addressed by evidence-informed food system policies. However, there is limited evidence on the current food system situation which constrains the development and implementation of such policies. The FS-TIP initiative aims to diagnose food system challenges and identify policies and stakeholders required for the functioning of food systems in Africa, with an initial focus on Rwanda, Malawi and Ghana. The process also aimed to contribute to and inform the 2021 United Nations Food Systems Summit (UNFSS) in-country dialogues and was implemented between April and August 2021. APHRC evaluated this process between August 2021 and January 2022 to identify enablers and barriers to successful implementation of the initiative; perceived relevance, usefulness, acceptability, willingness and readiness to adopt the FS-TIP approach; and the level of stakeholder engagement. This report presents findings from the evaluation. | |
