Cross Cutting Issues

AGRA recognizes the pivotal role of women and youth in agricultural transformation and is committed to achieving an inclusive agricultural transformation. To achieve our goals, we take a systematic, deliberate approach to tackling exclusionary norms and barriers.

Climate Change Adaptation

Africa accounts for just 3.8% of greenhouse gas emissions globally. However, the continent is the most highly exposed to the impacts of climate change. We are starting to see its effects in temperature changes, with most of the continent experiencing a 1-degree Celsius rise since 1901. If the continent warms by 2 degrees Celsius by 2050 – according to IPCC projections – crop yields across sub-Saharan Africa will reduce by 10%.
