Historically, agriculture has been underrepresented in COP dialogues despite its significant impact on and vulnerability to climate change. At COP28, a major breakthrough occurred with the COP28 UAE Declaration on Sustainable Agriculture, Resilient Food Systems, and Climate Action, where 160 countries committed to prioritizing agriculture in future climate talks. The panel aims to spotlight the critical role of African agriculture in global climate discussions as we approach COP29. The Paris Peace Forum's ATLAS initiative, established to promote South-North cooperation on sustainable African agriculture, will leverage this panel to mobilize a coalition of African states and international partners at COP29. This effort aims to ensure that African agriculture is a central topic in climate negotiations, recognizing its pivotal role in global climate solutions.
