The project INCrease has officially started its implementation phase on February 1, 2025. This 3-year phase is expected to build on previous work done during the previous initiation and bridging phases in 2023 and 2024, respectively.

During the initiation phase July-December 2023, we visited the selected research in areas of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal provinces. We held several sessions of knowledge exchange with local stakeholders and experts.
