This pilot programme built collaborations and enable knowledge sharing between the UK, Brazil and Africa (Ghana and Nigeria) to develop technologies and practices that promote climate-smart agriculture in Ghana and Nigeria.
The Partnership has funded:
- 17 Innovation Award projects, bringing together trilateral partners to explore innovative technologies and practices
- 13 Travel Grants building relationships between project partners
- 12 Scoping Projects, exploring key topics for future collaboration
* Based on the assessment of this previous (triangular) call, another call will be launched in spring 2026.
