2020 Videos - ECHO International Agriculture Conference

The 2020 International Agriculture Conference continued the tradition of featuring leading voices in various aspects of agricultural development—practitioners, scientists, and community leaders. Content was presented in plenary and concurrent breakout sessions, with ample opportunities to network with each other, as past participants have come to know and expect.

The differences: No visa required, no travel, no hotel! Lower cost, more people, more perspectives! Attendees can also host or attend viewing parties with other delegates with similar interests or working in common regions or locations.

Conference 2020 took place in a single day, in a seven-hour period, instead of being spread out over the course of three days.

    • World-class keynote speakers
    • Interactive breakout sessions
    • Networking and interaction with speakers and other delegates

Lightning talks are 2-5 minute subject-specific videos that illustrate how practitioners around the world are implementing techniques and principles based on our four themes.

Breakout Sessions are recordings of the live discussions with the Plenary speakers and with network members representing related topic areas.  Some of these created Lightning Talks, as well.
