The continent is actively working to improve its food systems to meet the needs of its growing population and to potentially trade with other regions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">With their energy, technological proficiency, and adaptability, the youth are crucial to this transformation. However, they are often sidelined and struggle to access essential production resources such as land and financing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Indeed, less than 10 percent of Africa\u2019s young people own land, while McKinsey notes that only a small fraction of the continent\u2019s youth have access to formal financial services.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Thankfully, many industry stakeholders agree that this state of affairs is no longer tenable. They are actively working towards driving the inclusivity of youth across all aspects of food systems, from policy creation to farm work, value addition, and marketing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Leading players in Africa\u2019s food systems are now centralizing the youth agenda across their strategic objectives while creating the opportunity for youth leadership and engagement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, even with shared objectives, many of these stakeholders tend to operate within silos, making it difficult to achieve the consolidated action needed for widespread impact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">It is now imperative that partnerships are established encompassing governments, private sector players, development organizations, farmer organizations, and others, forming a pool of ideas and resources to drive the common objective of youth empowerment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A perfect opportunity for this meeting of the minds is right around the corner, with different stakeholders invited to Kigali, Rwanda, from September 2 \u2013 6, 2024 for the African Food Systems Forum (AFSF 2024).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The biggest conference focused on Africa\u2019s agri-food systems, AFSF 2024 introduces a structured program around nine thematic platforms, which aim at strengthening the position of youth, women, financing, policy, sustainable production, regional trade and markets, climate, nutrition, and digitalization.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Among the nine, the youth platform has been given the most prominence as it best aligns with the theme of this year\u2019s summit, \u2018Innovate, Accelerate and Scale: Delivering Food Systems Transformation in a Digital and Climate Era\u2019, which highlights the forum\u2019s commitment to promoting innovation, rapid progress, and scalable solutions within Africa\u2019s food systems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Recognizing the critical role of youth in this transformation, AFSF 2024 will revolve around the \u2018Youth Dome\u2019, an innovative space dedicated to elevating the voices and contributions of young people in shaping the future of agriculture and food systems in Africa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Among the standout Youth Dome sessions is \u2018Seeds of Change\u2019, which will bring together investors, policymakers, and Business Development Service providers to explore collaborative solutions that can propel young entrepreneurs towards a sustainable and prosperous future in agriculture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The session seeking the \u2018African Youth Position on Food Systems, Policy, and Climate\u2019 will present knowledge documents and consolidated voices of African youth, underscoring the critical role of young people in shaping sustainable food systems and influencing policy decisions to address climate change.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Separately, a \u2018Cross-Generational Leadership Forum\u2019 will foster meaningful dialogue between young people and experienced policymakers, providing a platform for youth to express their needs and priorities for effective engagement in policy processes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This is as an \u2018Indigenous Youth Event\u2019 facilitates discussions on the intergenerational transfer of knowledge and preservation of cultural heritage. This session aims to inspire a greater appreciation for the contributions of Indigenous youth to sustainable agriculture and cultural preservation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">At the same time, a hackathon and startup pitching for the GoGettaz Agripreneur Prize will bring to the stage Africa\u2019s young innovators who will showcase their leadership in digital innovation and entrepreneurship, with winners taking home as much as US$50,000 each in cash prizes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">I have taken the liberty to go into the details of the forum\u2019s youth dome sessions because, as you may have noticed, the selection of topics has been deliberately designed to encourage participation from other conference sessions in the youth agenda. In the coming days, you will see extensive media content emerging around AFSF 2024, highlighting the forum\u2019s central role in driving action for Africa\u2019s continental food system transformation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1082974\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Dickson-23-e1725300623776.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"360\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The AFS Forum\u2019s year-round activities under thematic platforms will continue to support the high-potential youth innovators identified and highlighted during this year\u2019s forum. The goal is to provide ongoing productive resources to these youth-led businesses and to strengthen the policy environment through AFS Forum partners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">These efforts will take place in countries across the continent where the innovators operate, and AFS Forum partners are present.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This, indeed, will be an opportunity to engage with the who\u2019s who in Africa\u2019s food systems, and it is expected that at the end of the four-day summit, major decisions and partnerships will have been made for ultimate wins for the youth and the entire continent.<\/p>\n<p>The writer,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Naftali Dickson, is the head of Thematic Platforms and Innovation Programs at the Africa Food Systems Forum<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year, between 10 million and 12 million young people enter the labour market in Africa, but only 3 million manage to secure jobs.
