Impacts of Africa RISING in Ghana by Haile, Beliyou, Azzarri, Carlo, Castaing, Pauline, Kizito, Fred, Vitellozzi, Sveva, Boukaka, Sedi Anne

“…Sustainable intensification (SI) of the smallholder sector in Africa south of the Sahara is among the approaches pursued to build resilient food systems that can supply nutritionally adequate food in the face of rapid population growth and climatic changes. This study assesses the impact of Africa RISING, an SI program in Ghana implemented in the poorest and most food insecure areas of the country since 2012. …”
