Must include a section on important changes made Malnutrition and food insecurity remain a major challenge in sub-Saharan Africa due to limited access to proteins. Edible insects have been identified to be an inexpensive alternative source of animal protein for human and livestock due to their nutritional value and efficiency in food conversion. Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of Science and Technology (JOOUST) is a public chartered academic and research institution in Kenya and has been pioneering research in insect science and technology for food and feed in Western Kenya. The University working in collaboration with regional and international institutions has initiated rearing and value addition of insects for food and feed.; Through ACE II, the University in collaboration with local, regional and international partners proposes to establish the Africa Center of Excellence in Sustainable Use of Insects as Food and Feeds (INSEFOODS) with an overall objective to address challenges of sustainable food security using insects for food and feed.

Despite this optimism of growth, Africa remains the most food insecure continent. Hunger and poverty continue to ravage the continent and the number of people living in extreme poverty is expected to grow. The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in its recent Global Hunger Index report (2014) indicate that almost 33% of the population in Africa (close to 200 million people) are undernourished. The hunger situation is projected to worsen over the next two decades unless drastic measures are taken.
