The agenda includes pressing issues in the region such as policy priorities to recover from COVID-19’s impacts on agrifood systems; the prevention of future pandemics through the One Health approach; investing in ecosystem restoration for agrifood systems; promoting investment and trade in agricultural products within Africa in the context of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA); and ways to ensure women, youth and the poor are included in agrifood systems transformation.

Participating countries will share best practices and explore partnerships and opportunities for innovation and digital technologies to help improve food security and address other challenges in the region.

A new regional technical platform on Common Agricultural Policies and Practices will be launched, as well as a new publication with the African Union that promotes ways to better invest in young people working in agrifood systems.
