AFRICA – The 2025 African Union Summit is scheduled for February 5-6. The summit will prioritize agriculture as a key theme for the continent’s development. Agriculture, a critical sector in many African nations, is at a crossroads, facing challenges such as climate change, food insecurity, and underdevelopment.
This year’s summit will focus on transforming agriculture to ensure food security, economic stability, and sustainability for Africa. The leaders aim to enhance agricultural productivity, promote climate-resilient farming practices, and reduce the continent’s dependency on food imports. With over 60% of sub-Saharan Africa’s population working in agriculture, these improvements are vital for economic growth and poverty reduction.
The African Union is pushing for regional cooperation to build stronger trade and investment networks, focusing on creating local markets, improving infrastructure, and investing in technology to help farmers adapt to changing weather patterns. By addressing these critical issues, the African Union hopes to reduce the continent’s vulnerability to external economic shocks and enhance food sovereignty.

The upcoming summit raises the hope for a prosperous and sustainable agricultural sector across the continent.
