About GLF Africa 2022

GLF Africa 2022: How to build an equitable, resilient food future brought together over 8,500 participants from 122 countries and featured 182 leading scientists, activists, Indigenous leaders, financiers, youth and government leaders, and 68 incredible partners to explore African solutions to the global food crisis caused by climate change, COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine. 

Across 31 plenaries, interactive sessions, launches, virtual tours, dialogues, performances, and a job fair, the digital conference explored ways to transform the future of food through healthy landscapes, equitable access to land, and shorter, greener value chains. Messages on social media rallied 26 million people around concrete ways for Africa to regain its food sovereignty.

Rangeland restoration through sustainable value chain development

This round table brings together financiers and commercial sector, livestock value chain, and rangeland restoration actors to discuss how the linkages between sustainable livestock value chains and rangeland restoration can be strengthened, and investment in rangeland restoration improved.

Jointly organized by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and GLF’s Sustainable Finance Team the session combines discussions and hard talking with films and presentations of good practice. The aim of this session is to kick-start new partnerships for rangeland restoration through sustainable value chain development.
