(ICTs) in agriculture have the potential to increase the efficiency, productivity and sustainability agriculture by providing information and knowledge sharing. In this paper, we seek to illustrate the contribution of ICT to food security and sustainable agriculture in developing countries. We argue that developing solution architecture (e-agriculture framework) to expose farmers to the much needed agricultural information (i.e., preharvest and postharvest information, pricing, weather conditions etc) can boost agricultural productivity. CSAYN’s ICT &amp; Agriculture thematic area plans to explore how such frameworks can accommodate [&hellip;]
- [Climate Finance](https://csaynglobal.org/programs/climate-finance/): Climate Finance Carbon management has to do with the implementation of actions that would reduce emissions. It entails among others the measurement of carbon emissions associated with an activity, the identification and implementation of appropriate emission reduction strategies and reporting on the emission reductions. Climate finance refers to financial flows from industrial countries to developing countries to help them in the transition to a low-carbon development path and to adapt to climate change. It further includes public and private sources of funding and the channels into the broad areas of mitigation, adaptation, and Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation [&hellip;]

- [Energy-efficient farming systems](https://csaynglobal.org/programs/energy-efficient-farming-systems/): Energy Efficient Farming Introduction As energy prices continue to rise, farmers must reduce electricity and fuel use on the farm in order to reduce operation costs. Many energy conservation measures are free, low- cost, or have a cost-effective payback. This publication provides an overview of energy conservation across the many operations of the average livestock or field crop farm in Massachusetts. After reading this, the next step is to use a farm energy calculator as a self-assessment tool to determine where energy inefficiencies are occurring on your farm and where improvements can be made. Next, conduct an energy audit of [&hellip;]
- [Livestock, Fisheries, Aquaculture and Apiculture](https://csaynglobal.org/programs/livestock-and-aquaculture/): Livestock, Fisheries, Aquaculture and Apiculture INTRODUCTION Integrated farming of fish and livestock is an old practice consisting of the culture of fish (or shrimp) associated with the husbandry of domesticated animals such as pigs, ducks, chicken, etc.Integrated farming is traditional in Asia, especially in China and is now also applied in Europe and, on a small scale, in Africa and some Latin American countries.In many developed countries, intensive-scale aquaculture is now considered as a source of pollution of the environment due to the release of organic matter into the rivers. This is particularly the case of trout farms. Intensive farming [&hellip;]

In order to tackle the following challenges, CSAYN will implement a week of mobilization and advocacy on ZERO Hunger Campaign in schools, market places and hospitals to scale-up the eradication of malnutrition among youth and people living with disabilities across all CSAYN countries. More to this, capacity building training shall be organized within 12 months to reach out to rural and urban communities especially in educational environment per [&hellip;]
- [African Youth for the Sustainable Development Goals Training (AYSDGT)](https://csaynglobal.org/programs/african-youth-for-sustainable-development-training/): &nbsp; Background In September 2015, world leaders adopted the world’s first ever Sustainable Development Goals (SDGS), also known as the Global Goals consisting of 17 goals that are designed to end poverty, halt climate change and fight injustice and inequality. The Global Goals are the biggest attempt in the history of the human kind to make the world a better place. We all have a role to play in making these SDGs a reality. From governments to business and policymakers and youth, we must work together to ensure that we understand what the SDGs are and how we can contribute [&hellip;]
- [Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA)](https://csaynglobal.org/programs/climate-smart-agriculture/): Climate Smart Agriculture Climate smart agriculture (CSA) aims to enhance the capacity of agricultural systems to support food security, incorporating the need for adaptation and the potential for mitigation into sustainable agriculture development strategies. CSA proposes more integrated approaches to the closely linked challenges of food security, development and climate change adaptation/mitigation, to enable countries to identify options with maximum benefits and those where trade-offs need management. CSA recognizes that the implementation of options will be shaped by specific country contexts and capacities, as well as enabled by access to better information, aligned policies, coordinated institutional arrangements and flexible incentives [&hellip;]

- [Strategic Plan 2018 - 2022](https://csaynglobal.org/strategic-plan-2018-2022/): Our strategic plan 2018-2022 Background FAO (2013) reported that the world’s population will reach 9 billion by 2050, and food production will need to be doubled in order to feed this rising number. However, achieving this goal is becoming more and more difficult since agriculture is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and other environmental and human-made challenges. Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) presents a sustainable alternative to cope and mitigate the impacts of climate change; it promotes production systems that sustainably increase productivity, resilience, reduces/removes greenhouse gases, and enhances food security and development goals. Whilst CSA has become an [&hellip;]
