In Pursuit of Service Excellence: Sustainable City and Town Development
in Africa
The impact of globalisation on city management is being increasingly
felt on a daily basis. The cities that succeed in this perpetually
changing global arena are those that develop people who can lead and
implement management strategies across borders, cultures and a host of
logistical and legal complexities. Faced with limited funding, cities,
municipalities and districts have developed a range of community- grown
strategies for expanding the resources available for affordable city
development

AFRICA AGRICULTURE PRODUCT AND RURAL

INNOVATION MANAGEMENT (AARDPIM) CONFERENCE
***** AN AFRICA AGRICULTURE EVENT
*****

SANDTON CONVENTION CENTRE - SANDTON JOHANNESBURG - SOUTH AFRICA
The Africa Agriculture Product and Rural Development Innovation
Management (AARDPIM) invites you to participate in a back-to-back
Conference and Exhibition to address major development challenges and
opportunities facing Agriculture in Africa in the context of Global
trends and dynamics.
Food Security, Safety and Quality is a growing concern not only in the
African soil but also across the world. There is increasing need to
provide greater assurance about the security, safety and Quality of
food to consumers. Africa has optimal potential for food production,
consumption, management and trading. Its enhanced share in world food
trade could lead to adoption of products innovation and food safety
measures. Food safety is an increasingly important public health issue
and it is the right of the consumer to have and eat safe and quality
food.
In this context AA’s first Conference and Exhibition is a step to
synergize collaborative efforts among the stakeholders to deliberate on
the issues related to Agriculture, Rural Development, Food Security,
Safety, Quality Assurance, Products Innovation and Management This
industry-led science and technology gathering seeks to bridge the gap
between ideas and discoveries and products in the marketplace.
Participation will surely pay off as innovation creates new market
opportunities for farmers, agri-businesses and communities.
