23 - 27 May 2022. The fourth and final week of the Africa Dialogue Series focuses on the sub-theme “Human Capital Development, Climate, Energy and Food Systems.” This week’s activities are led by the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD), UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), and the Office of the Special Adviser on Africa (OSAA)
Continued climate change, coupled with recent shocks and disruptions, including the desert locust in parts of the continent and the COVID-19 pandemic, have highlighted Africa’s fragility and vulnerabilities in key areas of human development. This requires a shift from the unsustainable current socio-economic trajectory. The African Common Position on Food Systems Implementation mechanism provides for bold introspection, rallying science, and existing knowledge while harnessing indigenous knowledge and the views and perceptions of communities to contribute to solutions.
Activities during this week will highlight challenges, opportunities and solutions enhancing human capital development, addressing climate and energy challenges and strengthening food systems.
