ADS2022: Day Sixteen

Continued climate change, coupled with recent shocks and disruptions, including the desert locust in parts of the continent and the COVID-19 pandemic, have highlighted Africa’s fragility and vulnerabilities in key areas of human development. This requires a shift from the unsustainable current socio-economic trajectory. Initiatives like the African Common Position on Food Systems Implementation mechanism provide for bold introspection, rallying science, and existing knowledge while harnessing indigenous knowledge and the views and perceptions of communities to contribute to solutions.

This interactive webinar will discuss existing and new ideas. Join experts as they discuss challenges, opportunities and solutions enhancing human capital development, addressing climate and energy challenges and strengthening food systems in Africa.
