Highlight: 28/08 Can Africa reduce the 2025 projected bill of 110 billion USD of food imports? 

Organised by: The Federation of Africa Nutrition Societies Conference (FANUS) and the African Nutrition Society (ANS) 

Both the African Union Agenda 2063 Second 10-year Implementation Plan (2024 – 2033) and the Kampala CAADP Action Plan for 2026-2035, address the continued drain on national budgets of the bill for imported foods. According to H.E. Commissioner Sacko (Ministerial Retreat, Rwanda, October 2023) the 90 billion US dollars African countries have been spending for the last 5 years on food imports is expected to reach 110 billion US dollars per year as of 2025. A political commitment at the highest level is backing the African Union’s comprehensive multi-stakeholder action plans conceived to rectify the paradox of the high cost paid for food imports by a Continent that possesses more than half of the world’s uncultivated fertile land.  

The Symposium aims to, 1) review the current situation, its challenges and opportunities, and the strategies deployed to address them; 2) share an ongoing example of Africa’s strategies deployed to meet those challenges; and 3) discuss progress made in some of the strategic approaches that contribute to creating - and satisfying - a consumer demand for home grown African foods.
