“This is a way to really introduce innovative ways of addressing local problems with local solutions that are sustainable, affordable and scalable.”
As Elvis Odeke, World Food Programme Head of Resilience and UN Coordination, shared at the IGNITE Food Systems Innovation Challenge Ethiopia 2.0 Demo Day, the goal is more than simply supporting new ideas.
It’s about creating a way for local innovators to solve local problems with solutions that can actually work, grow, and make an impact.
