Implementation is often undermined by fragmented institutional arrangements and weak coordination among relevant ministries and stakeholders. National Agriculture Investment Plans (NAIPs) frequently lack enforcement mechanisms and suffer from poor integration with broader national development plans. Additionally, accountability and transparency in monitoring commitments are insufficient, which weakens trust and follow-through.

A very comprehensive initiative. Let’s be committed to its implementation by spelling out the ‘hows’ very explicitly.

This marks the 3rd Decade of CAADP. Let’s make Africa agriculture work. Less talk, more action. Less workshops, more field work. Less reliance on patronizing donors, more reliance on own resources. No country ever developed from foreign aid. Africa cannot continue to be the laughing stock of the nations. Empty rhetorical speeches must stop. We need doers, not preachers; visionaries, not villains. Some people have been around CAADP for far too long with nothing to show. We cannot continue recycling archaic personas taking us nowhere. They must give way for new ideas that can give impetus to the Kampala Declaration. Let’s take even only 10 pilot countries sampled across Africa and show that CAADP can work!

I thank you all the team members very much for adopting the Kampala declaration . It is my belief that the regenerative agriculture is the way go, because the soil has been depleted by the over use of agro-chemical farm inputs,

This is great and landmark stride towards achieving sustainable and inclusive food systems transformation in Africa. Member states need to contextualise this in their countries.
