About ICTforAg 2024

Purpose
ICTforAg is an annual convening where agrifood system stakeholders, technology experts, and enthusiasts gather to share knowledge, find solutions, and form partnerships to address challenges in agrifood systems across low and middle-income countries.
Goals

Grow communities and catalyze meaningful conversations, insights, and collaborations.

Increase the participation of global South participants, strengthen knowledge sharing and shared learning, and inspire practitioners to develop inclusive and sustainable ICT solutions.

Desired outcomes

Local digital ecosystems (e.g., policymakers, investors, service providers, practitioners, and users) are strengthened to invest and deliver impactful, inclusive, and sustainable ICTforAg solutions.

New innovative ICTforAg projects and collaborative partnerships are developed.

Small-scale producers benefit from more localized, gender-responsive, and affordable ICT services becoming available in the local digital ecosystem.
