ECDPM event
|Roundtable
The objective of this roundtable is to bring together key (AU and EU) stakeholders to discuss issues that are central to sustainable agricultural development and their implications for the CAADP process: land, research, seeds, family and women farming. The timing is right as several key policy processes are currently under review, both at European Union (EU) and African Union (AU) level. Furthermore agriculture will be high on the international agenda in 2014 as it will be the AU Year of Agriculture and Food Security the UN General Assembly has declared it the Year of Family Farming.
The results of this roundtable will hopefully inform the 2014 review of the CAADP framework, currently underway under the leadership of the AU.
