The ‘Voice for Change Partnership’ (V4CP) programme is led by SNV Netherlands Development Organisation and implemented in partnership with the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). It is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It works to strengthen civil society organizations (CSOs) in Kenya, Rwanda, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Honduras and Indonesia in their role as advocates and lobbyists. CSOs represent the interests of crucial groups such as pastoralists, female entrepreneurs and smallholder farmers. Together with the International Food Policy Research institute, Washington, it aims to support these organizations to foster collaboration among relevant stakeholders, influence agenda-setting and hold the government and private sector accountable for their promises and actions. We will tackle four issues – food and nutrition security, resilience, renewable energy, and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) –by also addressing gender balance and climate change mitigation. The “MoreMilk” project is led by ILRI and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation with co-funding from the CGIAR Research Program Agriculture for Nutrition and Health (led by IFPRI) and the CGIAR Research Program Livestock (led by ILRI). The overall objective of the project is to improve child health and nutrition through milk consumption. It will evaluate the potential of milk markets and milk development interventions to contribute to health and nutrition outcomes. It will do this by a) assessing how markets and policies influence the quantity and safety of milk consumed in urban settings;  b) assessing the health and nutrition benefits of a successfully piloted informal dairy sector intervention (trader-intervention), through a randomized control trial (RCT) in Nairobi; c) assessing the potential reach of the trader-intervention as well as bridges and barriers to scale and sustainability through surveys in Kenya, Assam (India) and Tanzania; d) assessing the drivers of milk consumption in urban and rural Kenya and Tanzania and developing a Social Behaviour Change Communication strategy for milk consumption; e) scoping priority areas for food safety investments with a focus on Ethiopia, Nigeria and Burkina Faso.   2  Training summary  Organizer/co-organizers:  Delia Grace Joseph Karugia  Lecturers/facilitators:  Edward Okoth Silvia Alonso Florence Mutua      3  Agenda  9.00 am-9.30am Coffee/tea and registration  9.30 am-10.00am Welcome and workshop objectives Introductions  10.00am-11.00 am Food safety in east Africa – introduction, concepts, multiple burdens, interventions   Impact of unsafe food to consumers including cost of treatment, reduced productivity  11.00-11.30am Tea break  11.30am-12.00pm Traceability – examples from meat and relevance to dairy  How traceability can work for the dairy sector  12.00pm-1.00 pm Food safety what didn’t work: examples and group work  Solutions -  best practices  Case studies that highlight what the exact food safety concerns are and specifically for crops, show what contaminants are present and where the contamination is taking place  Food safety in the face of food shortage and drought   1.00 pm-2.00 pm Lunch  2.00 pm-4.00 pm Policymaking for public health – lecture and group work  Food safety, regulatory and policy   Global food safety agenda and progress indicators  Policy and gender   Policy for inclusive business   Policymaking in the light of devolved governance structure   4.00-4.15 pm Wrap up and lessons learned       4  Training material  1.
