Subject: research opportunity: Future Trends in Food and Nutrition Security

 Please could you post the following on the CA CoP:


 The Alliance 2015*  wishes to engage a researcher to conduct a study
on *Future
Trends in Food and Nutrition Security*. The purpose of the research is to
compile existing and convergent research findings and recommendations and
to identify possible gaps in current EU policy and programming. Looking at
current practices and how they are perceived by youth should also
contribute to a constructive debate with the European Union and member
states in Europe and indeed in those in countries in which we work about
what needs to change and how such change could be supported and sustained.
The reserach will cover:

·         What are young African women and men’s aspirations with regard to
farming and the agri-food sector in general?

·         What barriers do they face as they try to address food and
nutrition insecurity in the context of rapid climate and economic change?

·         What can be done about those barriers to youth engagement in
farming and agri-food business in Africa?

·         What could enable young women and men living in rural areas to
engage successfully and sustainably in farm livelihoods?

·         Are Europe’s current policies and programming addressing these
issues adequately?

Reserach will include a desk study of exisiting research and field work in
Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, Tanzania and Malawi.
