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. Loreen Maseno is a Senior Lecturer, Department of Religion, Theology and Philosophy, Maseno University, Kenya and Research fellow, University of South Africa (UNISA) David Andrew Omona is an Associate Professor of Ethics and International Relations and Dean School of Social Sciences at Uganda Christian University. Ezra Chitando is Professor of History and Phenomenology of Religion at the University of Zimbabwe.
