The Conference aims at unlocking the potential of water for development in Africa. In particular, it aims at:
- assessing the challenges faced by the agricultural sector, in view of the current food crisis in Africa taking into account the strong linkages with energy and climate change;
- carefully examining how investment in the rural space can reverse trends to obtain well balanced sub-sectors that offset production risks, close food production gaps and ensure food security;
- analysing bottlenecks and constraints to accelerated water development in support of the continent's food and energy needs; and
- proposing ways to promote and secure investment in water to maintain food and energy security in the region.
