On 11 November, Ag4Impact and ODI organised a round-table discussion at the European Commission (DG AGRI) in Brussels to discuss two new publications.

This event  launched two new reports which provide practical, real-life examples of linking smallholder farmers in Africa to markets, as well as a robust academic review of the challenges faced, lessons learned and path ahead. Approximately 60 senior attendees, from the European Commission (DG AGRI and DG DEVCO) but also from academia, aid agencies and other research institutions attended the round-table discussion, which was followed by an active Q&A session.
