  • Resumen

  • This podcast series marks the 20th anniversary of the African Centre for Biodiversity (ACB), which traces its humble beginnings from when the organisation was first named the African Centre for Biosafety, to reflect the principle focus in the early years on genetic modification (GM) and biosafety in food and agriculture. Over time, this evolved into working on interconnected issues affecting food sovereignty and biodiversity in Africa, including industrial agriculture, seed and plant variety protection policies laws, farmer seed systems, farmers’ rights, agricultural biodiversity, agroecology, and corporate expansion and control in agriculture and food systems.

    We invite you to look back with us as we reflect on our rich shared history, with a particular focus on advocating against the encroachment of GM food into our agriculture and food systems.

    ACB's legacy podcast: celebrating 20 years of resistance against GMOs in Africa
    May 13 2024

    This legacy series provides an opportunity to reflect on and celebrate the past two decades of ACB’s advocacy and activism, with a particular focus on resisting the introduction of genetic engineering into our agricultural and food systems in Africa. The first podcast, hosted by ACB Research and Advocacy Officer Sabrina Masinjila, features our Executive Director and founder, Mariam Mayet and Haidee Swanby, who worked for ACB for a decade. Don’t miss this intimate recounting of the early years, as civil society scrambled to understand the emerging technology and its risks, and then resisting its introduction. In the second podcast we will hone in on the fight to have genetically modified organisms (GMOs) regulated, with a deeper dive into our engagement in the international arena and the drafting of the Convention on Biological Diversity’s Cartagena Biosafety Protocol, as we continue to look back on our legacy of two decades of activism.
