Description
1) Objective
This grant is a component of the FCDO’s Just Rural Transition Support program. This is a £65 million 5-year programme that will support the design and implementation of public policies and support (including through subsidy reforms) that scale sustainable agriculture approaches in developing countries to benefit:
- people (healthy diets, incomes)
- climate (mitigation, adaptation)
- nature (protect and restore biodiversity)
The grant will provide support over 4 years to deliver a well organised, non-state-actor community that can influence policy reform processes and contributes to driving positive food systems change. This will focus on 3 key areas:
- convening and curating a community of practice: they want to promote an inclusive and positive global dialogue on food systems transformation focusing on non-state actors and farmers, which sets out the roles different actors can play and what good looks like
- knowledge sharing and communications on food systems transformation: the community of practice should highlight compelling case studies and examples of state and non-state actor action on food systems that can show what works and drive action from others
- collaborating to develop key political and policy messages to take to government and to global convenings and platforms: this element will focus on the wider community and support non state actors to identify key messages to take to governments and global meetings such as COP
