## Resilafrica Event Announcement
African Development Bank Group will hold a high-level side event at COP31 to strengthen Africa's food systems resilience through coordinated investment and climate finance.
## Resilafrica Framework Goals
The initiative aims to connect existing programmes, financing instruments and technical expertise to help African countries anticipate climate shocks and protect agricultural production.
## Why It Matters
Droughts, floods and extreme heat threaten food security across Africa, but efforts remain fragmented with financing arriving after losses occur.
## Event Details
The event takes place on 13 November 2026 from 16:30-18:00 UTC+3 at Africa Pavilion (A240), COP31 in Antalya, Türkiye.
## Key takeaway

African Development Bank will introduce Resilafrica, a food systems resilience framework to connect climate finance and agricultural investments at COP31.
