About GA2023

The 2023 WFO General Assembly will take place in Sun City Convention Center, near the city of Rustenburg, South Africa, from May 21 to 24, 2023.
The event is organised in collaboration with the WFO Members Southern African Agri Initiative (SAAI), African Farmers Association of South Africa (AFASA) and the Wildlife Ranching South Africa (WRSA).

This year’s theme is: “INVESTING IN FARMERS’ SOLUTIONS FOR RESILIENT FOOD SYSTEMS WITH A POSITIVE IMPACT ON NATURE”.

The WFO 2023 Annual Meeting will focus on the nexus between agriculture and nature, highlighting the critical role farmers and their local solutions on the ground can play to address the global challenges of transitioning to resilient Food Systems generating a tremendous and positive impact on the nature around us.

The #WFOGA2023 will bring farmers from all over the world on the stage together with high-level representatives of governments, private sector entities, research centres and academia, international organisations, and financial institutions to look for synergic responses leveraging farmers’ solutions.

For those who will not be able to attend in person, this year’s WFO General Assembly will simultaneously be broadcast online.
