Webinar | Boosting Nutrition at the Source: Biofortification for a Healthier Africa

This webinar is the fourth in the series “A Healthier Future for Africa - A Food Systems Approach to Combatting Malnutrition”, organised by The Regional Center of Excellence Against Hunger and Malnutrition (CERFAM) and the HealthyDiets4Africa (HD4A) project consortium, who have come together to create a platform that will generate evidence, inform policy, and catalyse action for food systems transformation in Africa. More specifically, this webinar focuses on biofortification - a sustainable and farmer-friendly solution to improve the nutritional quality of staple crops at the source, especially in rural and low-income communities. This webinar offers a deeper, more technical exploration of how biofortification can contribute to building more resilient, nutritious, and sustainable food systems in Africa. This webinar will examine how research and breeding innovations are delivering nutrient-dense varieties that respond to both environmental and nutritional challenges. Focusing on crop improvement, seed systems, and consumer acceptance, the webinar will showcase will spotlight efforts of the Healthy Diets for Africa (HD4A) consortium partners working on biofortification and contributing to food system transformation in Africa.
