In the second of two sessions, this AFN Network+ Project Showcase will highlight key learnings from our funded projects.

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.

Please note: This is the second of two online showcases. The first is on Wednesday 5 November. You can sign up for both or just one of the showcases.
