Bold gets Bolder: Enhancing the Production and Consumption of Neglected and Underutilized Food Crops

This is a promotional brochure for the BOLD 9BOLD (Biodiversity for Opportunities, Livelihoods and Development) project. BOLD's objective is to strengthen food and nutrition security worldwide by supporting the conservation of crop diversity in genebanks, and its use in pre-breeding. An extension to the BOLD project is BOLDER, which will enhance the conservation, production and consumption of lesser-known crops that are nutritious, robust, environment-friendly and important for local communities, the neglected and underutilized food crops.
