INFORMING IMPLEMENTATION OF THE KAMPALA CAADP DECLARATION 2025-2035
On January 11, 2025, the member states of the African Union adopted the Kampala CAADP Declaration that charts the way for building resilient and sustainable agrifood systems in Africa as a follow-up to the 2014 Malabo Declaration adopted. PARI research and the PARI network of around 30 national, regional and international research partners based in 15 African countries, Germany and India can be helpful to inform the implementation of the new CAADP agenda. Over 300 studies were jointly published by PARI and partners over the past decade, exploring different dimensions of food system innovations.
This event will reflect on key learnings of the collaborative research effort in PARI and share lessons for the implementation of the Kampala CAADP Declaration 2025-2035 to transform food systems in Africa to promote affordable and equitable access to healthy foods. The discussions will draw on a comprehensive report that summarizes the entire body of research generated in PARI by theme and research countries which will be launched at the event.
