Decolonizing African Agriculture

On December 4th, the Columbia Global Centers in Tunis and Nairobi, in collaboration with Columbia University Press, hosted William Moseley, DeWitt Wallace Professor of Geography at Macalester College, for a discussion on his latest book, "Decolonizing African Agriculture" (CUP, 2024). The event explored why many agricultural and food policy approaches have failed in Sub-Saharan Africa, with Moseley critiquing the dominance of Western, colonial agricultural science that has been deeply entrenched in power dynamics across the continent.
