AFN Network+ Project Showcase

The AFN Network+ has funded over 30 scoping study projects and 24 Stakeholder Flexfund projects over the last 3 years. Join us online to hear about the key learnings from a selection of these projects, and the potential for action for the transformation of the agri-food system. There will be the opportunity for Q&A and discussion in small groups with the presenters.
