This document outlines the agenda for a two-day foresight event held prior to the 6th Africa Agriculture Science Week and FARA General Assembly in Accra, Ghana. The event focused on exploring the future sustainability of rural areas and the contribution of agriculture and science in Africa. Day 1 involved group work to identify drivers of rural sustainability, map these as a system, and introduce scenario building. Day 2 consisted of group work to develop plausible future scenarios for key drivers and discuss implications for food security. A synthesis report was prepared on Day 3 to summarize outcomes for the plenary session on rural sustainability.
