Covering AFRACA's key activities and engagements in 2024, this newsletter highlights regional policy dialogues, notably the Central Bank Forum in Uganda and the rural economy revitalization forum in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It reports on bilateral meetings with member financial institutions, new partnerships with organizations such as Bioversity International and CIAT, and capacity-building workshops covering blue finance and youth access to capital. Additionally, it outlines project updates on the INCiTiS-Food grant initiative and previews the 8th World Congress on Rural and Agricultural Finance scheduled for late 2025.
