International Poverty Solutions Collaborative
The Kirwan Institute’s Global Justice Program will present The Poverty-Growth Nexus in Agriculture: The Food Crisis in African Countries at Building Solutions to Poverty – Methods and Metrics for Identifying Success Conference on the OSU campus, Wednesday, October 19 – Friday, October 21. This paper identifies structural barriers to the poverty-growth mechanisms within the African agricultural sector and food system. These constraints point towards paths for inclusive growth strategies, highlighting the work of social movements working for greater social participation and articulating solutions to challenges that are at once land-based, environmental, agricultural, economic and political.
