Beskrivning
This book addresses the relationship between religion, climate change, and food security in Africa. Contributors to this volume interrogate how and to what extent religion in Africa serves as a resource (or confounding factor) in responding to Sustainable Development Goals 13 (action on climate change) and 2 (achieve Zero Hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture). Approaching the theme from diverse disciplinary and methodological angles, contributors probe the potential role of religion in Africa to accelerate the achievement of these two SDGs, especially the role of religion with regard to food availability, food accessibility, food utilization, and food systems stability.

“The book’s primary strength lies in combining theologies of several religions, local narratives, and quantitative data from multiple case studies across African countries, resulting in a thorough analysis. … the book offers a coherent and detailed thematic framework, making it a valuable resource for policymakers, religious institutions, and local communities seeking to strengthen resilience against climate change collaboratively.” (Cecilia Engko, Titien Sofiati, Meidy Kempa, Nelda Maelissa and Fitriani Sardju, African Identities, February 19, 2025)
