Transversal Component
Objectives:
- Through the transversal components, the program will be coordinated, steering thematic support provided to the RCoEs with the aim of enhancing cross-thematic and cross-regional synergies, as well as fostering collaboration with major pan-African projects and initiatives.
- The Africa Knowledge Platform enables data and information sharing across the RCoEs and other stakeholders. The platform also develops and hosts decision-support tools to help policy makers with spatial prioritisation and land use planning, contributing to the strengthening of the science-policy interface. AKP stands at the core of the program serving as knowledge and communication hub while promoting stakeholders' active participation.
- The Innovation Ecosystem work package aims at developing and implementing a methodology for a systemic place-based approach to mobilise STI for green transition. The methodology targets the strengthening of RCoEs capacities to identify and assess the interlinkages between sustainability challenges, with the objective to help in anticipating and mitigating potential negative effects of investment decisions.
- Formulate and execute responses to environmental degradation and DRR.
