Friday, the AFS Forum 2024 in Kigali came to a close. For 5 days, food systems thought leaders exchanged ideas about the theme Innovate, Accelerate, Scale, Delivering Food Systems Transformation in a Digital and Climate Era. The growing forum brought together nearly 5000 delegates from 97 countries, among which ministers of agriculture, CEOs from Africas leading food companies, donors, knowledge institutes and civil society organisations from all over the world and many - often youth-led - innovative start-ups and MSMEs. 

Here are some of our key takeaways.

Highlights from the Africa Food Systems Forum 2024

Makerere Univeristy is one of the nine universities participating in the Food Systems Innovation challenge 2024. In this challenge 18 teams are asked to develop a Food System Innovation within their local context. Uganda faces a significant challenge with jackfruit wastage, with 30% to 40% of harvested fruit ending up as waste due to over-ripeness or transportation damage, according to FAO 2021. Fruitastic 5, a team of five students from Makerere University, is tackling this issue head-on by developing edible-quality jackfruit leather snacks from overripe fruit. Their innovative solution aims to reduce waste and improve local economies. We asked the Fruitastic 5 team to share their story!
