Aide Memoire (opening statement by Josuè Dionè) : " AD- HOC expert meeting on science and technology issues for sustainable development: principles, methodology and strategy for promoting the African green revolution (16-18 November 2004, Addis Ababa)
Abstract
The pursuit of a Green Revolution in Africa can only proceed from a full recognition of the complexity arising from the diversity of agro-ecological zones, farming systems and socio-cultural contexts of the continent. It is evident that different versions of Green Revolution must be designed to fit these different contexts. Yet, the design principles must be the same: to be sustainable, the African Green Revolution must be scientifically valid, economically viable, environmentally friendly and socially acceptable. It must be manageable by African farming communities.
