Abstract

Towards reducing food and nutrition insecurity in southern Ethiopia, “Scaling-up Pulse Innovations for Food and Nutrition Security (SPIFoNS)" is a three-year collaborative project between Hawassa University (HU) and University of Saskatchewan (UofS). There is high demand and strong take-up from communities for the interventions. The project has reached a significant milestone and presents these stories of change, which are pertinent to further scaling-up. The current aim is to use pulse innovations as an entry point to facilitate system change, and towards food and nutrition security in the region.
