The AU-EU Innovation Agenda - Working document (14 February 2022)

Global Food and Nutrition Security

This AU-EU Innovation Agenda proposes specific objectives with short-, medium- to long-term actions for all four priority areas of the AU-EU High-Level Policy Dialogue on Science, Technology and Innovation HLPD, agreed by the Ministers in July 2020.

The document includes an overview of the STI (Science, Technology and Innovation) initiatives at the AU and EU level as well as the results of the pilot mapping exercise of projects of the EU-AU R&I Partnership on Food and Nutrition Security and Sustainable Agriculture.

One of the specific objectives of the Agenda relates to “Fostering digital applications and green technologies to give impetus to agroecological production, healthy and sustainable food processing and consumption, and by co-designing with food system actors to scale digital solutions for production, processing and marketing to support sustainable and agroecological transition”.
