Short synopsis of Agriculture for Impact
Agriculture for Impact is an independent advocacy initiative led by Professor Sir Gordon Conway, based in the Centre for Environmental Policy, Imperial College London, with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
They are seeking increased and enhanced European government support for productive, sustainable, equitable and resilient agricultural development in Sub-Saharan Africa, focusing in particular on the needs of smallholder farmers.
They are calling for European leaders to move the debate beyond summit statements and political rhetoric, and focus on the practical implementation of their commitments to Africa.
