Agricultural Policy Research in Africa (APRA) is a five-year, Research Programme Consortium funded by UK aid from the UK Government through the Department for International Development (DFID) and will run from 2016 -2022. This project aims at analysing the impacts and outcomes of pathways to agricultural commercialization on rural poverty, empowerment of women and girls and food and nutrition security in Ghana and six other Sub-Saharan Africa countries. The outcome of these analyses will produce new information and insights into different pathways to agricultural commercialisation in order to inform policy and practices related to rural poverty, empowerment of women and girls and food and nutrition security.
Expected Duration: 4years, 3months (March 2017 – May 2021)
