Howev er\, technology holds immense potential for better food security planning and progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals\, notably Goal 2: Z ero Hunger.UNCTAD in collaboration with AIR CAS\, ANSO and EIAR is organiz ing a regional workshop to bring together technicians\, policymakers and o ther stakeholders from African countries to receive training to use the Cr opWatch system. Across the four days of training provided by AIR CAS’s e xperts\, participants will be given access to the technology (both during and after the programme) and will be provided with training to use it\, in cluding being taught how to customize it to specific local requirements.Th e CropWatch Innovative Cooperation Programme (CropWatch ICP) has the objec tive of giving developing countries access to the technology developed by AIR CAS\, free of charge and indefinitely. The program will also provide t raining to national experts to use them and implement them in their home c ountries. The intended outcome of the training and the CropWatch programme is to enable developing countries to improve food security through advanc ed crop monitoring.<\;p>\;Crop monitoring with earth observation on a massive scale is neither easy nor inexpensive and requires access to speci alized tools.
