The “Green Innovation Centres for the agriculture and food sector” (GIC) project, implemented by the GIZ, aims to enhance the agricultural value chains in various countries by promoting sustainable practices and innovations. The “Atingi”-platform, which was created as part of the project, can be seen as a knowledge hub that provides access to the various knowledge outputs of the initiative. It offers resources and information tailored to specific countries, including Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Nigeria, Togo, Tunisia, Vietnam, and Zambia. By selecting a country, users can access materials relevant to that nation's agricultural context, supporting the development and dissemination of green innovations in the agricultural sector.
