Webinar ''Mainstreaming agroecology in Africa's approach to climate change''

The Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa (AFSA) is currently facilitating a campaign on mainstreaming agroecology in climate policies in 12 African countries and at the Africa regional level. The campaign includes mobilizing local actors, engaging the government, and reaching out to the general public through various media networks.

This session shared the experiences of Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, and Togo. Sena Alouka spoke about young people's experience in rural areas in promoting agroecology for climate action and the success of adopting an agroecological policy in Togo;  Karen Nekesa shared experiences with schools and regional governments to encourage agroecology from Kenya;  Wilberforce Laate presented on the advocacy for climate action in Ghana, linking with indigenous knowledge and culture; From Nigeria, Ms. Joyce Ebebeinwe spoke on the experiences focusing on civil society advocacy to include agroecology into national climate policy amidst the push from industrial agriculture.
