Pilaf at the 65th Annual Nigerian Economic Society (NES) Conference
From September 3–5, 2024, PiLAF was represented at the 65th Annual Nigerian Economic Society (NES) Conference held at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja.
The conference theme, “Socio-Economic Development in Nigeria: Imperatives, Implications and Impacts,” provided the perfect setting for PiLAF to showcase its ongoing work in agricultural policy and food security.
PiLAF’s booth, set up in the exhibition hall, attracted a diverse audience of economists, policymakers, and agricultural stakeholders. During interactive sessions, PiLAF staff engaged with key stakeholders, discussing the importance of evidence-based policies for addressing Nigeria’s agricultural and economic challenges.
The conference also fostered partnerships that would strengthen PiLAF’s advocacy for sustainable agricultural practices. It is noteworthy that the President of NES is PiLAF’s Principal Investigator, Prof. Adeola Adenikinju.
