· Explains the drivers of change in modern agrifood markets

· Provides a framework for analysing how institutions and policies shape the risks and opportunities for small-scale producers and entrepreneurs

· Shows how to design multi-stakeholder processes that help actors from along the chain work together to realise common interests and secure domestic and regional markets inclusive of small-scale producers and entrepreneurs

· Offers practical ideas for facilitating workshops and policy dialogues
