MamoPanel 's Bioeconomy report

MamoPanel (2022) Nature’s Solutions: Policy Innovations and Opportunities for Africa’s Bioeconomy – Full Report #97 

In Africa, the bioeconomy strategy of the East African Community (EAC) is currently being finalized, while in some countries—as this report will show—the first generation of bioeconomy strategies is under development. There is hence a clear opportunity for Africa to show leadership and to leapfrog to a developing bioeconomy. 

This report draws on the experience of four African countries:

  1. Ghana Case Study-Nature’s Solutions: Policy Innovations and Opportunities for Africa’s Bioeconomy
  2. Namibia Case Study-Nature’s Solutions: Policy Innovations and Opportunities for Africa’s Bioeconomy
  3. South Africa Case Study-Nature’s Solutions: Policy Innovations and Opportunities for Africa’s Bioeconomy
  4. Uganda Case Study-Nature’s Solutions: Policy Innovations and Opportunities for Africa’s Bioeconomy

 - that are already exploring various bioeconomy approaches, and whose policy and institutional innovations are noteworthy for other countries on the continent. 

Background 

The Malabo Montpellier Panel convenes 18 leading experts in agriculture, engineering, ecology, nutrition, and food security. Its aim is to facilitate policy choices by African governments in order to accelerate progress toward food security and improved nutrition. 

The Panel identifies areas of progress and positive change across the continent and assesses the things that successful countries have done differently. It identifies the institutional and policy innovations and program interventions that can best be replicated and scaled by other countries. 

The related Malabo Montpellier Forum provides a platform to promote policy innovation; it uses the evidence produced by the Panel to facilitate dialogue among high-level decisionmakers on African agriculture, nutrition, and food security.
