In 2022, the BMEL published a fourth research announcement, with the title "Innovative Sustainable Production Systems", as part of the funding instrument "International Research Cooperation for Global Food Security"
The research call is directed at collaborations between German agricultural and nutrition research institutions and those in countries and regions that are severely affected by hunger and malnutrition.
In the light of a holistic approach to food systems, the focus of the call is on innovative agricultural production systems in Sub-Saharan Africa and South and Southeast Asia, which are adapted to the target groups and their natural environments. The demand-oriented results and solutions are expected to contribute to improved nutrition of the local population and to a sustainable use of natural resources.
