Vision
Because of the primary reason why AFS was established, our VISION seeks to continually explore, research and find the significant intersections between Food and Security on the continent of Africa, and to secure a self-sustained African continent in terms of food security.
So, AFS will always prioritize maximizing education and enlightenment campaign levels for the continent of Africa–from leadership to the people and vice versa–on the importance of finding lasting solutions to the challenges which result from the topic of Food and Security.
Mission
AFS aims to provide food security viability for Africa through multi-tiered consultations, collaborative research ,and pragmatic partnerships.
About Africa Food Security
Welcome again. Thanks for coming back. You should know that AFS is the right place to be as we speak. Where else would you rather be at a period in the history of our world when FOOD and SECURITY subjects dominate every other aspect of human existence.
…think about it this way…
Food is produced on farmlands, maybe not in government “white houses” in Africa. But then there are these other issues, religion, culture, corruption and bad government often fueled by avarice and power intoxicants. Add social instability to the list. Or say it as it now is: terrorism in Africa. Farmers are not able to carry out their daily activities of planting the food which the population needs. Consequently, grocery stores are not stocked with produce in which case, prizes of the limited available food items witness unannounced but predictable spike.
At best, the above only describes some connecting dots between the food and security phenomena.
Security
Although there are growing security challenges which countries around world are passing through, Africa is gradually becoming the epicenter of security issues. Some of these are related to the emergence of threats from terror networks operating around and in the continent.
