Meetings were also held with high-rank representatives from the African Union Headquarters, University of Pretoria (UP), and Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) to conduct in-depth exchanges on enhancing capacity building and innovation cooperation under the framework of CAASTIA. The CAAS delegation also paid a field visit to the China-Kenya Rice Demonstration Base and offered advice on its future development.

During the visit, CAAS signed Memorandums of Understanding with KARLO and ARC. Besides, EIAR, KARLO and ARC signed and submitted the Letters of Acceptance to join CAASTIA.
