description What happens at a conference for youth about youth ? On the 28th and 29th of June 2017, Uganda hosted a youth summit as a side event to the 11th International Community Based Adaptation to Climate Change conference in Kampala, Uganda. It was focused on the theme “ Enhancing the ability of youth to build ecosystem resilience , ” . The CGIAR Research Program on Water Land and Ecosystems and the International Water Management Institute hosted a session titled “A youth agenda for sustainable agricultural transformation in an era of climate change and out - migration.” It was oriented around one key issue: a large population of rural youth today in Uganda and the wider region have limited interest in becoming farmers.
