CIRAWA Agroecology Conference
Agroecology and Nature-Based Solutions for Sustainable Food Systems in Africa
The EU-funded project CIRAWA has been collaborating with farmers and stakeholders in four West African countries (Cape Verde, Ghana, Senegal, and The Gambia) since 2023, to develop and share agroecological and nature-based solutions that promote sustainable and resilient farming.
The upcoming scientific conference aims to bring together diverse actors (researchers, farmers, NGOs, policymakers, development partners, and other stakeholders) to share knowledge, discuss strategies, and strengthen collaboration for accelerating the agroecological transition across the continent.
By disseminating this knowledge, the initiative supports Africa’s shift toward agroecology in line with AU and AU-EU policies on climate resilience, biodiversity, and food systems transformation.
