On Wednesday, April 22, 2026, African ministers of agriculture gathered in Meknes, Morocco, for the 6th Ministerial Conference of the Initiative for the Adaptation of African Agriculture (AAA). The meeting took place on the sidelines of the International Agricultural Show of Morocco (SIAM).
The conference focused on strategies to enhance agricultural resilience to climate change across the continent. Discussions centered on financing mechanisms, technology transfer, and policy coordination among African nations.
According to official statements, the initiative aims to mobilize resources for climate-smart agriculture and improve food security in Africa. The AAA initiative was launched in 2016 during the COP22 climate conference in Marrakech.
No specific declarations or funding commitments were announced during the meeting. The event was part of the broader SIAM 2026 program, which runs from April 21 to 26 in Meknes.
