Description
The Orph-Crop initiative was conceived as a synergetic and complementary action to the SUSTLIVES project financed by the European Union in the framework of the EU DeSIRA) initiative.While SUSTLIVES is mainly an action-research project that aims to increase knowledge of local agro-biodiversity assets and to strengthen the capacities of Neglected and Underutilised Species (NUS) supply chains actors and research institutions, this project has a development and cooperation connotation, envisaging actions aimed at developing supply chains related to orphan or under-utilised crops, improving the institutional and governance framework, and fostering access to and exchange of knowledge on NUS. This initiative contributes to the transition towards more sustainable and climate-resilient local food and agricultural systems that ensure food security and stimulate the economies of rural communities through the valorisation of NUS supply chains in Burkina Faso and Niger.
