You are required to write one policy briefing for decision-makers at a national level (for example, Minister of Science and Technology) on the role of innovation in meeting a chosen SDG target. 

• SDG 2: End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture
• Target 2.4: By 2030, ensure sustainable food production systems and implement resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and production, that help maintain ecosystems, that strengthen capacity for adaptation to climate change, extreme weather, drought, flooding and other disasters and that progressively improve land and soil quality
• Briefing option 1: The Minister requires a briefing on specific innovation policy instruments and their potential role in supporting innovation to deliver the SDG target you have selected. You should draw on the literature and on evidence of policy instruments that have been applied across the world, but target your briefing at a particular national context of your choosing.
