Four-year Afro-European project AfroGrow launched in Nairobi

The World Agroforestry Centre campus in Nairobi, Kenya hosted a three-day conference from 10 to 12 March, 2025, which officially launched the AfroGrow project. The four-year AU-EU project, funded by the Horizon programme, aims to support and develop sustainable agroforestry practices in farming across Africa. Twenty-five partner organisations intend to offer solutions to key problems related to climate change resilience, biodiversity conservation and socio-economic development of communities. The cooperation between the European Union and the African Union is to be based upon available databases, their harmonisation and examples of good practice directly in the field.

Agroforestry approaches, with the essential involvement of experts from three faculties of ČZU, including the FZP, will be tested and verified within the project in so-called living labs in six countries that represent the diversity of the African environment, both ecosystems and human communities - Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Kenya, Zambia and Botswana.
