Did you know? The Malabo Declaration (2014) set bold commitments to end hunger, reduce poverty, and boost intra-African agricultural trade by 2025. While progress has been made, the pace must quicken to meet these critical milestones. At the ongoing CAADP Extra-ordinary Summit, H.E. Amb. Josefa Sacko Commissioner for ARBE, urged African leaders to accelerate the implementation of the new 10-year CAADP Strategy and Action Plan (2026–2035) once adopted. This forward-looking strategy envisions building resilient and sustainable agrifood systems, ensuring a healthy and prosperous Africa for generations to come. #Agenda2063 Read the Malabo Declaration here: https://lnkd.in/du_CdVE3
