🌱 Innovate today. Nourish tomorrow. On this #WorldFoodDay, let us reaffirm our collective commitment to supporting Sudan’s farmers, strengthening its agrifood systems and building a more resilient future. Together, we can build a food-secure future for Sudan. #AgInnovation

🌾 From Sennar, Sudan, to FAO’s 100 Women Heroes in Agrifood Systems and Rural Development! Meet Basamat Suliman, whose work in sustainable agriculture, environmental conservation and women’s empowerment is helping build a more resilient future for rural communities. #RuralWomen #IYWF2026

When conflict hits, everyone is affected. For fishers in Sinnar State, it meant: 🏚️ A home left behind 🚤 Fishing boats destroyed 🔥 Nets burned 🎣 A livelihood lost But as @FAOemergencies Director highlighted, emergency agriculture is about more than replacing what was lost. It is about providing the tools needed to access food and restart livelihoods, the skills to grow and the resilience to navigate what may come next. #AgricultureCan

📍The closer we are to communities, the better we can respond to their needs. During his visit to #Sudan, @FAOemergencies Director Rein Paulsen helped open FAO’s Kosti Hub in White Nile State, bringing our life-saving and life-changing support closer to vulnerable families in Darfur and Kordofan, where needs are greatest. Because achieving #ZeroHunger means leaving no one behind.

🌊For a fisher like Babiker, being on the water means everything. When @FAOemergencies Director Rein Paulsen visited Khor Ajwal in White Nile State, Babiker shared how FAO’s support helped him and his fellow fishers return to the water. The boats they received enabled them to restart their livelihoods, but learning to build their own boats and make fishing nets was the real game changer. The result? 🐟Immediate access to food. 💰Income to meet needs, including school fees. ⬆️And importantly, the skills to build a future for themselves. On their terms. #AgricultureCan

🐐In an IDP settlement in Al Jabalain, White Nile State, @FAOemergencies Director Rein Paulsen met Karima, a mother of seven who fled Blue Nile after being displaced by the conflict. Despite receiving food assistance, Karima had no source of income, and her four-year-old daughter, Zulfa, was suffering from malnutrition. Last year, FAO provided Karima and other families like hers with five goats. Last week, she told Rein that her herd has now grown to 11, Zulfa is thriving and her family has sustained access to milk, meat and income. #AgricultureCan

A full first day in #Sudan for @FAO's Emergency and Resilience Director Rein Paulsen, meeting with the Undersecretary of MoAI and UN partners to boost local food production, protect livelihoods and reduce hunger. One message was clear: agriculture is the foundation for recovery.

🌾With support from the Government of Japan through @jica_direct_en, @FAO is distributing 100 MT of sorghum seeds to support 10 000 vulnerable farming households in River Nile State. The assistance will help farmers strengthen food production and build more resilient livelihoods

With #China’s support, @FAO is providing animal feed and mineral licks to 3 200 households and rehabilitating the Gob and Tobeen agricultural terraces, benefiting around 5 000 farming households through improved rainwater harvesting in Red Sea State, #Sudan. #FoodSecurity

In Sudan, a bag of seeds means more than a harvest. 
 It means food, income and a chance to rebuild. 
 @FAO humanitarians keep reaching communities despite conflict, protecting lives and livelihoods when they are needed most.
