updates: The African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD) is working with countries in Africa to deploy genome editing in the agricultural sector to address the increasing levels of hunger and poverty. Genome editing has the potential to significantly improve agricultural productivity, ensure food security, and enhance food quality and nutritional value. The technology can also promote climate-friendly agriculture and reduce dependence on fertilizers and pesticides. Nigeria is one of the countries making progress in genome editing, with a regulatory framework in place and crops being edited in line with guidelines set by the National Biosafety Management Agency. Other African countries, including Kenya, Ethiopia, and Zimbabwe, are also involved in genome editing projects. Stakeholder consultations, capacity building, and the development of communication strategies and implementation plans are underway to facilitate the safe and effective deployment of genome editing technology in agriculture across the continent.
