Peace is more than the absence of conflict. It is also about how we share and manage the resources that sustain us.

Food connects us to land, water, livelihoods and communities. Building food systems rooted in cooperation, inclusion and shared opportunity can help create stronger and more resilient communities.

This , let’s build food systems that nourish both people and peace. 🕊️🌱

Agriculture is already part of your life. From the food on your plate to the jobs and businesses around it. The question is: will young people help shape where it goes next?

Day 2 of was all about solutions, evidence and commitments
The youth got deep into conversations around solutions, evidence and commitments for resilient and sustainable agrifood systems.

We debated the potential of agroecology to feed Africa, while also looking at its profitability and ability to create dignified jobs for young people. We explored One Health through the connection between people, animals and the environment, and examined how innovation and technology could support the transformation of agroecological systems.

The conversation then widened to something equally important: collective youth power. Young people cannot transform food systems alone. We need to learn across generations, organise collectively and work with communities, governments, private sector, civil society and other actors.

We also confronted the systems around us - policy, governance, financing, investment and partnerships and asked whether they are creating the conditions young people need to participate meaningfully and build viable livelihoods.

Food systems transformation is not one big solution. It is many people, ideas and sectors working together towards a system that works for people, planet and future generations.

Day 1 of took us on an interesting journey-from indigenous food knowledge and traditional farming practices to AI and innovation transforming agrifood systems.

wali-turn up kwa wingi. We reflected on the knowledge our elders have carried for generations: how food was grown, how seeds were preserved, how indigenous foods moved from farm to table, and the ecological practices that helped communities work with nature.

Mbele tunaona success. AI, technology and innovation are already opening new possibilities for how young people can solve challenges in our food systems.
And maybe the lesson is simple: we don't have to choose between the old and the new.
We can carry forward the wisdom that has worked for generations while using technology to make our food systems more productive, resilient and inclusive.

Si kila solution lazima iwe brand new. Sometimes, the future needs the wisdom of the past, plus a little innovation.

For young people, this is our opportunity to connect knowledge, creativity and technology and build food systems that actually work for our generation.

Guka na shosh had the knowledge. We have the technology. Now, what will we create with both?

The future of food systems will be stronger when young people are not only invited to the conversation, but are given the space, resources and voice to shape it.

took the conversation to the Coast Region, bringing young people together to discuss the future of Kenya’s food systems from a perspective that was practical, honest and youth-led.

The discussion was not simply about the challenges facing youth; it focused equally on the solutions, opportunities and changes needed to enable young people to become meaningful shapers of the food systems they depend on.

The context in Kilifi made the conversation particularly important because the county has significant potential through agriculture, fisheries, livestock, tourism and the blue economy, including opportunities in fishing, aquaculture and seaweed.

This discussion therefore went beyond asking whether opportunities existed. It focused on how those opportunities could translate into decent livelihoods, affordable and nutritious food, innovation, entrepreneurship and greater youth participation in decision-making.

The dialogue also reinforced a message at the heart of the Kenya Youth in Agrifood Systems Summit 2026: young people should not be viewed simply as beneficiaries of food systems programmes, but as key actors and drivers of agrifood systems transformation.

The Coast Region has the resources, talent and creativity to shape a more resilient and inclusive food system and what stood out from today's conversation is that young people are ready to be part of that transformation; not as a generation waiting for its turn, but as one already building solutions.
