IFPRI currently has more than 600 employees working in over 80 countries with a wide range of local, national, and international partners.

IFPRI works with partners in Africa at the country, regional, and continental levels to provide cutting edge, policy-relevant research on food and nutrition security for policymakers, development partners, and stakeholders. Sharing this research and engaging through capacity building and dialogue informs effective policies, programs, and investments to help ensure that all people have access to safe, sufficient, nutritious, and sustainably grown food. The Africa Regional Office in Dakar, Senegal, provides an on-the-ground presence to support local research and capacity building as well as partnership building for sustainably reducing poverty and ending malnutrition.
