The Knowledge Centre for Organic Agriculture and Agroecology in Africa is dedicated to empowering African farmers and stakeholders by providing practical, accessible resources to support the shift toward sustainable farming practices. Through a network of five regional knowledge hubs, we make it easier for users to access valuable information on organic and agroecological methods, build technical skills, and connect with a supportive community of professionals. Our mission is to bridge the gap between need and knowledge, helping users strengthen their skills, expand their networks, and become more effective advocates for sustainable agriculture across the continent.
