AgriFoSe2030 Phase II, launched in November 2020, will focus on four challenges. These challenges are the core and consists of several different projects.
Each challenge addresses a specific aspect of agriculture and food security in sub-Saharan Africa and South and Southeast Asia. The challenges were chosen in dialogue with AgriFoSe2030 partners, including steering group members and researchers in the AgriFoSe2030 network representing different agricultural disciplines and regions. The theme-specific expertise from Phase I will be present in each challenge, and communication and engagement strategies will be developed on a project basis for each challenge.

The AgriFoSe2030 programme is developed by a consortium of scientists from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Lund University, Linköping University and Stockholm Environment Institute. The programme is funded by Sida, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, and is starting a new four-year phase in 2020 with a budget of SEK 60 million. The programme began in November 2015 with its first phase, which ended in June 2020. AgriFoSe2030 is hosted by SLU Global at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences.
