With unpredictable weather patterns impacting farming communities, how do we protect both lenders and smallholder farmers?
The answer lies in systemic, climate-resilient solutions.
At the #FINAS2026 Summit, we are hosting a dedicated side event (comprising of experts from UNDP, Acre Africa, CGIAR, Drive Kenya, FSD Africa, ILRI, APA Microinsurance, and FSD Kenya ) focused on embedding insurance right into agricultural lending. Whether it’s crop or livestock systems, de-risking finance is the key to unlocking true agricultural potential in Africa.
