In the November newsletter, the Food & Business Knowledge Platform (F&BKP) gives an update on the Agrofood Broker of the Year Award, presents reports and workshops conclusions, and lists Knowledge Portal items and Events relevant to Food and Nutrition Security professionals.

The nomination round for the Agrofood Broker of the Year Award 2018 was closed on November 19, 2018. The Platform received eleven nominations which the jury members are now evaluating.

The Newsletter starts with a report about building NLandscape, a Dutch knowledge platform on landscape approaches. Furthermore the following articles are presented: a report on the seminar about business opportunities for strengthening nutrition at the BoP; a RUAF theme magazine on Youth in Food; conclusions of meetings in Brussels on research & innovation and on the European role in food systems in LMICs; and the report of a lunch seminar on cultural intensification in the Sahel.
