description The Malabo Declaration on accelerated agricultural growth and transformation for shared prosperity and improved livelihoods is a set of goals adopted by Heads of State and Government of the African Union in 2014 in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea (AUC 2014). To translate the seven Malabo commitments into results, a call for action was made by the Heads of State and Government for the African Union Commission (AUC) and the African Union Development Agency NEPAD (AUDA-NEPAD), in collaboration with partners, to initiate a review process to be conducted on a biennial basis starting 2017, with an objective of tracking, measuring, and reporting progress toward achieving the Malabo Declaration commitments by 2025. Four Biennial Reviews (BR) have been conducted—the inaugural BR in 2017, the second BR in 2019, the third BR in 2021, and the most recent BR concluded in 2023. As part of fulfilling Commitment 7 on mutual accountability, the fourth BR Report (BR4) and the Africa Agriculture Transformation Scorecard (AATS) were launched at the 37th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the AU Heads of State and Government in March 2024 (AUC 2024). This brief draws on the BR4 to summarize Botswana’s performance in pursuit of the seven Malabo Declaration commitments. In addition, the brief assesses the challenges faced and lessons learned by the country. The brief also reviews policy, programmatic, and investment changes in Botswana induced by the inaugural BR (BR1), the BR2, the BR3, and the most recent BR4. The final section of the brief highlights policy actions and programmatic measures Botswana should take in order to meet its Malabo Declaration commitments by 2025. A key recommendation from the analysis indicates that Botswana needs to pay more attention to putting in place evidence-based policies and strategies aligned with the CAADP process through a strong multi-sectoral and multi-stakeholder coordination body to guide its actions in this regard.
