In recognition of World Food Week (October 16 – 20, 2023), Power for All is orchestrating an exclusive webinar titled, "Just Transition for Food Systems: De-carbonizing Agriculture Value Chain for a Climate Resilient Future".
Hosted by Brian Kawuma, Director, Powering Agriculture, Power for All, the discussion will include prominent experts from the food, activist and renewable energy sectors:

Glen-Tyler Davis, South Africa Team Lead, 350Africa.org
Agriculture plays a major role in our looming climate crisis. With agrifood systems relying on fossil fuels for 80% of their energy, causing a third of global greenhouse emissions, and consuming 30% of global energy, they are intensifying the climate crisis. Given that food demand is set to skyrocket by 60% by 2050, the need for urgent, sustainable agricultural transformation is paramount.
Power for All’s recent research, “Powering Agriculture With Renewable Energy: A Just Transition for Food Systems”, highlights the recognized importance of renewable energy. However, it shows a concerning lack of progress in its actual implementation.
We encourage you to grab your virtual seat and join us in discussing actionable solutions, collaborative ventures, and forward-thinking strategies. Webinar Details:
Date: October 19, 2023
