The third in the series of “Beating Famine” Conferences is being planned for the Sahel. The focus has shifted from building awareness of FMNR (Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration) and EverGreen Agriculture practices, to taking proven successes to massive scale. Invited participants from across the Sahel, along with financial and technical partners and representatives of governments, universities, CBO’s and civil society will come together to share, learn, plan and accelerate the regreening and restoration movement for food security and nutrition in Africa.
