ABSTRACT

Artificial Intelligence will form the basic hallmark for food choices and preparations. It is foreseen that Nairobi will require developing and implementing enabling policies and guidelines to accelerate attainment of food and nutrition security for better health. The reality is that there will be future shocks linked to climate change. As critical stakeholders, people must collaboratively and urgently rebuild the African agriculture and food landscape. This will require a concerted effort to support Africa’s youth entrepreneurs engaged in the agriculture landscape. People must invest in private-public partnerships to create an enabling environment for enhanced value chain competitiveness, transitioning their subsistence farmers to thriving agribusiness entrepreneurs, leveraging digital tools and climate adaptation strategies. In addition, people must invest in food safety and high standards for their products and build more robust market and trade linkages on the continent, leveraging the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (ACFTA) to ensure greater regional and international trade.
