Stakeholder engagement is crucial in order to ensure that research is relevant and impactful and that outputs reach the intended recipients. To achieve effective stakeholder engagement and co-creation of research, the FSNet-Africa team is supported by nodes linked to one of the project’s lead partners – FANRPAN (the Food, Agriculture, and Natural Resources Policy Analysis Network). These nodes form part of FANRPAN’s multi-tiered network throughout Africa. The FANRPAN node representatives and country-based contacts (in the case of Ghana) provide the first point of contact between the FSNet-Africa fellows and relevant food systems stakeholders.
