Spotlighting the Sahel: Climate-Resilient Solutions for Greater Food Security
The event will raise awareness on the different challenges and opportunities that exist in the Sahel region, while placing youth, women, and smallholder farmers, herders and social entrepreneurs at the center of the conversation. The event will coalesce relevant local, national, regional, and global stakeholders, including members and representatives of Sahelian countries. It will feature initiatives and innovations that have accelerated socio-economic growth and enabled shared prosperity in the Sahel. The event will place special emphasis on the Great Green Wall Initiative, assessing its progress, identifying remaining gaps, bottlenecks, and areas of action, while fostering the establishment of new partnerships and reinvigorating old ones to further support the initiative.
