⁣Preparing for the future of agriculture and food in Ghana’s Upper West Region | 2019

Achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a global challenge, becoming acute in the face of climate change, natural resource degradation, and diseases affecting humans, animals and plants. Technologies and practices that promote sustainable intensification on smallholder farms vary spatially according to the diverse ways in which economic transformation and population dynamics are influencing the costs of land, farm labor, and cash inputs such as fertilizers and improved seeds. At this seminar we reflect on how to achieve sustainable productivity gains through investments in soil health and knowledge. Reports have been commissioned on pioneering efforts in East and Southern Africa to engage and empower farmers and communities through approaches that specifically support disadvantaged youth and women. Highlights include innovations in extension, soil health monitoring and agricultural policy around sustainable intensification. Firsthand experiences were shared on how to scale out bidirectional learning and access to inputs, to address food security, and simultaneously, environmental security. A panel of experts reflected on the frontline experiences presented, and considered how sustainable agriculture intensification can be further supported and scaled out, in a rapidly changing world. This was a unique opportunity for lessons to be synthesized from cutting-edge innovations in soil health for SDG.

Doc for research purposes. By the way i don't understand a word that is being said but the images are very familiar.

translated text of the description on utube:
⁣The root bark of Tabernanthe Iboga, in Africa and South America, contain ibogaine, an enteogen. The root is used there by the fang, mitsogo and others ethnic groups, in Gabon, Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea. Eboka is a sacred Entheogen, sacrament or power plant.

Professor Bayyinah Bello opens up the conversation with a poem written 5000 years ago by an Ethiopian philosopher who identifies Freedom.

How do subterranean cities of ants look like? 10 tons of cement were required to fill the wholes and tunnels. Then it took weeks to uncover the secret megalopolis of the ants. With the help of mechanical diggers, brazilian scientists removed tons of earth. At last, the scientists begin to see the structure of the city state.

In the North of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, one finds a church that was built in 434 AD. This church was the first of about 120 other churches built in the Tigray region. Its curved entirely from a rock and not a single stone block was used. The church is the hiding place of the Ark of the Covenant which is known to be sacred.
Whatever is in the Ark is only known to the priests and no one even the president knows or has the authority to check. Hence the big question is, what is in this preserved Ark? We find out from the keepers of the Ark.
