Seventh Annual Conference in
Addis Ababa: 25-27 June
The Ethiopian Economics Association’s (EEA) Seventh Annual Conference was held in Addis Ababa on 25-27 June, which Samuel Gabreselassie and colleagues at the Ethiopian Economics Policy Research Institute helped to organise.
As in previous years, Future Agricultures was a major presence at the conference. researchers gave an overview of FAC activities and two keynote presentations to over 180 people during a plenary session on the final day, one on Farmers’ Organisations and Agricultural Transformation in Africa and the other on Social Protection in Africa, both drawing lessons from Ethiopia, Kenya and Malawi.
Two new FAC policy briefs on farmers’ organisations were prepared for the conference, along with a set of briefs on Social Protection.
The FAC materials were widely distributed and the occasion afforded the opportunity for important networking.
