The African Union and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development called on August 17 for stronger implementation of the Kampala Declaration and its 2026–2035 Strategy and Action Plan.

The two organisations said the focus must move from agricultural commitments to tangible results as African countries pursue the transformation of agri-food systems, according to Fana Broadcasting Corporate.

The appeal places implementation at the centre of the continental agenda. The source report did not provide new country-by-country targets or financing figures, leaving the practical pace of delivery to be measured through subsequent programmes and national actions.
