[SAVE THE DATE] FAO Regional Conference for Africa (ARC32)- African countries to define regional agrifood systems priorities

The 32^nd Session of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ Regional Conference for Africa (ARC) will hold from 11 April – 14 April 2022 in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. More than 50 African countries will attend to discuss and define the regional priorities in agrifood systems transformation. This conference is held due to the increased number of people in Africa with not enough food to eat daily, as billions of Africans cannot afford nutritious food and countries continue to grapple with the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The four-day conference will be held as a hybrid event, both at the Sipopo Conference Centre in Malabo and online, with participants joining via video conferencing due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

During the conference, the participating countries will share best practices and explore partnerships and opportunities for innovation and digital technology to transform agri-food systems, address food insecurity and climate change, and face other significant challenges.
