About the Africa Food Security Network

 

The Africa Food Security Network is an online learning and collaboration network that aims to develop and transform  Africa’s agriculture and agriculture-led development through learning, sharing of ideas and collaboration with like minded individuals and professionals.

The network, which hosts various food security focused groups on the platform, is supported and operated in partnership with the African Union Commission Department of Rural Economy & Agriculture, New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) to further the goals of the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP) Goals, by Africa Lead, a Feed the Future and USAID program.
