World Agri-Tech’s South America Summit spotlights the vast potential the region holds in scaling innovation and driving the global transition to sustainable and climate-smart farming practices.

With a regional content focus and international delegation, the summit offers a platform for sharing best practice, making new connections, and forming long-lasting business relationships.

The African Youth SDGs Summit is Africa’s largest youth forum on the Sustainable Development Goals. Launched in 2017, the Summit has evolved to bring together a multi-sector coalition of youth, development experts, government and UN entities, NGOs and the private sector to create the Africa we want together.

Once again, the African Youth Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Summit will be held both virtually and physically. We look forward to welcoming participants across Africa and around the world to connect and participate virtually, alongside a limited, in-person gathering of participants in Accra,Ghana.

Connect, network, and learn from a pan-African audience and contribute to an inspiring and constructive debate on the role of youth in the SDGs. Africa’s future is ours if we reach for it together. Are you in?

Ex situ collections play a critical role in conserving crop diversity and supporting research, breeding and resilient food systems. The global botanical community is increasingly working to better understand the strengths and gaps in their collections, while expanding their impact through collaboration, including with genebanks.

Gap analysis helps identify how well collections represent the diversity found in nature, using geographic and ecological coverage as indicators. By revealing what is missing, it guides future collecting efforts and strengthens the overall conservation system.

In this GROW webinar, speakers will introduce the Gap Analysis and Metacollection Management tool GAMMa, a new, user-friendly interface that brings these methods into practice. Through real-world examples and a live demonstration, participants will explore how GAMMa can support more strategic, coordinated conservation of plant diversity.
