About AAAE

The African Association of Agricultural Economists was initiated in Durban, South Africa, during the 25th International Association of Agricultural Economists (IAAE) conference. During a special African session, a draft constitution for the Association prepared by an ad-hoc committee formed during the 24th IAAE Berlin 2000 conference was presented. Participants re-affirmed the need for a continent-wide association and approved the association’s name. An interim committee was formed to develop the constitution further and organize the official launch of the association. The committee made a call for papers during the third quarter of 2004. The response was overwhelming, with the over 120 abstract submissions received. This enabled the committee to organize a three-day inaugural symposium for its potential members and other social scientists during 6-8 December 2004, in Nairobi, Kenya. The Association was officially launched during this meeting.
