The Second African Congress on Conservation Agriculture (2ACCA) to be held in Johannesburg, South Africa, from 9 to 12 October 2018 under the theme  “Making Climate-Smart Agriculture Real in Africa with Conservation Agriculture: Supporting the Malabo Declaration and Agenda 2063”, will bring together expert knowledge, information, and insights from practitioners from across different sectors and interests groups from the public, private and civil sectors under one roof to discuss and strategically agree on scaling-up CA as an integral part of the growing food and agriculture systems in Africa. The event will appraise progress made so far on 1ACCA resolutions and targets and where appropriate propose requisite corrective measures necessary for the attainment of the 10 points Lusaka Declaration resolutions. 

The 2ACCA initiative provides “neutral space” for networking, collaboration and partnership to support the scaling-up of CA systems as the sustainable basis for CSA development across Africa.
