THE ECOWAS Commission hosted an innovative E-Learning Initiative to conceptualize the ECOWAS Agricultural Policy (ECOWAP) E-Learning platform.

The E-learning platform is intended to help bridge the Agricultural Knowledge gaps and empower rural African farmers in West Africa.

The workshop which was held from the 11th to 15th November 2024 in Lagos, Nigeria, also aims to create a learning environment for stakeholders in the sector especially rural African farmers with practical training and reliable information on effective farming techniques.

According to a statement by ECOEAS, “This initiative by about 30 experts and project and programme coordinators from the Directorate of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD) and the Regional Agency for Agriculture and Food (RAAF), targets underserved farming communities that lack access to traditional agricultural knowledge and practices in West Africa.”
