Legume Systems Innovation Lab Program Nears End

From the August 2023 Newsletter

As the Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Legume Systems Research nears its program end date of August 2023, we reflect on our milestones and accomplishments.

Over our five-year program, the Legume Systems Innovation Lab executed six initial activity projects, seven competitive projects, five commissioned projects, two Mission buy-ins, and one associate award. We also implemented a science communication and grant writing seed grant competition and provided support to projects on cross cutting themes of gender, youth, nutrition, resilience, and capacity development.

Key metrics to date include degree training for 63 individuals and short-term trainings to over 6,200. The Legume Systems Innovation Lab has engaged 49 institutional partners in 13 countries and engaging 100 researchers with 32 technologies.
