Item 5th Bi-Monthly KM4AgD Webinar 2026 - Presentations on 2026-2030 Knowledge Management Partnership Framework Summary(2026-10) Benjamin AbugriThis presentation provides a strategic overview of the Knowledge Management Partnership Framework for Agricultural Research for Development in Africa, 2026–2030, developed through collaboration involving CAADP-XP4, CGIAR, the African Union Commission and the KM4AgD Community of Practice. The framework establishes a shared vision for an African agricultural research and innovation ecosystem in which knowledge is intentionally governed, shared, co-created and applied to accelerate resilient, inclusive and sustainable agrifood systems. It articulates eight strategic objectives and seven implementation components addressing institutional coordination, adaptive learning, digital transformation, capacity development, indigenous knowledge, collaborative knowledge products and evidence of knowledge management's contribution to agricultural transformation. The presentation outlines partnership governance arrangements, institutional responsibilities, implementation approaches and mechanisms for monitoring progress. Particular emphasis is placed on African ownership, institutional collaboration, knowledge accessibility, responsible adoption of artificial intelligence, inclusive participation and the practical application of knowledge in policy, investment and agricultural development. It serves as a strategic reference for institutions and stakeholders working to strengthen continental, regional and national knowledge management systems and translate agricultural research and innovation into measurable development outcomes.Item 5th Bi-Monthly KM4AgD Webinar 2026 - Presentations on AFAAS 2025 Annual Report Summary(2026-10) AFAASThis presentation provides an overview of the African Forum for Agricultural Advisory Services' institutional performance and contributions to agricultural extension and advisory services across Africa in 2025. It documents achievements in network coordination, capacity development, knowledge management, digital innovation, professionalization and agricultural transformation. The report highlights AFAAS's engagement across 35 African countries, its institutional membership network, project portfolio and efforts to strengthen agricultural advisory delivery systems. Particular attention is given to youth-led digital advisory enterprises, the Digital Connectors initiative in Kenya and Uganda, and the role of Country Fora in translating continental agricultural priorities into national action. The presentation further identifies ten lessons informing future programming and outlines five strategic priorities for 2026, emphasizing artificial intelligence, institutional sustainability, professional development, partnerships and implementation of the CAADP Kampala Agenda. It serves as a knowledge-sharing and institutional accountability resource for agricultural research and extension stakeholders, policymakers, development partners and organizations supporting Africa's agrifood systems transformation.Item Demystifying Indigenous Knowledge systems as Superstition in Advancing African Agriculture(FARA, 2026-05-28) Benjamin B. Jabik (PhD)This presentation examines the role of Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) in advancing sustainable agricultural development in Africa and challenges the tendency to dismiss local knowledge as superstition. The author argues that Indigenous Knowledge represents a systematic, experience-based, and context-specific body of knowledge developed by local communities through long-term interaction with their environment. Using qualitative and ethnographic approaches, the presentation distinguishes Indigenous Knowledge from myths and superstition by emphasizing its practical utility, ecological specificity, cultural grounding, and intergenerational transmission. The discussion highlights the importance of Indigenous Knowledge in agricultural resilience, biodiversity conservation, climate adaptation, seasonal forecasting, agroforestry, soil fertility management, and sustainable farming systems. The presentation further advocates for integrating Indigenous Knowledge Systems into agricultural research, policy, curriculum development, and innovation systems in Africa. It concludes that documenting, investing in, and institutionalizing Indigenous Knowledge can contribute significantly to sustainable agricultural transformation, climate resilience, and locally driven innovation across the continent.Item Socratic Playground for Learning (SPL): An AI-Powered Personal Tutor Based on Guided Dialogue with Self-Discovery(FARA, 2026-03-26) Eric TsuiThis presentation introduces the Socratic Playground for Learning (SPL), an AI-powered personal tutoring system designed to enhance learning through guided dialogue and self-discovery. Drawing on the principles of Socratic learning, the system leverages artificial intelligence to promote critical thinking, metacognition, and personalized learning experiences. The presentation explores how generative AI can transform traditional instructor-led training into learner-centered education by enabling adaptive learning pathways, real-time feedback, and interactive knowledge construction. It highlights key features such as scaffolded responses, personalized support, and knowledge checks, while emphasizing responsible AI use within knowledge management frameworks. The work situates AI-enabled learning within broader concepts such as human-centered AI and responsible knowledge management in the context of SocietyItem Responsible AI in Agroecology: Transforming Knowledge Into Impact(FARA, 2026-03-26) Ines AmamouThis presentation explores the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in transforming knowledge management (KM) within agroecology systems in Africa. Delivered within the context of the Knowledge Centre for Organic Agriculture and Agroecology in Africa (KCOA), it highlights how AI can bridge the gap between complex scientific knowledge and practical application for farmers and stakeholders. The presentation introduces a paradigm shift from traditional information retrieval methods to interactive AI-driven knowledge systems, emphasizing natural language interaction, intelligent synthesis, and actionable insights. It outlines practical applications of AI in content creation, communication, and digital knowledge dissemination, while promoting responsible and ethical use of AI tools. The work underscores AI’s potential to enhance agricultural productivity, support digital inclusion, and strengthen sustainable agroecological practices across Africa.Item Practical Insights on MEL for KM Results Management(FARA, 2026-01-29) Anselme VodounhessiItem Measuring the Impact of KM in Agricultural Development - Insights from the perspective of CCARDESA - A Presentation during the 4th KM4AgD Bi-Monthly Webinar Series on Nov 13, 2025(FARA, 2025-11-13) Bridget Kakuwa-Kasongamulilo
