ABSTRACT

---

In January 2025, Heads of State and Government of African Union (AU) Member States adopted a strategy for the third phase of implementation of the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP), during an Extraordinary Summit held in Kampala, Uganda. The Kampala CAADP Declaration on "Building Resilient and Sustainable Agrifood Systems in Africa" and the associated CAADP Strategy and Action Plan (2026-2035) outline a 10-year plan to transform Africa's agrifood systems.
 

Following an official launch by the AUC, through its Department of Agriculture, Rural Development, Blue Economy and Sustainable Environment (AUC-DARBE), jointly with AUDA-NEPAD, during a May 2025 event held in South Africa, the third phase of CAADP implementation details bold ambitions for Africa's agrifood system transformation, including six Strategic Objectives, 22 Targets, and 35 Intervention Areas.
