Two days of intense feminist discussions @FAO - refreshing, challenging, and inspiring. Grateful to all who made it special. We commit to fighting patriarchy, neocolonialism, and all forms of injustice together ! #Feminism #SocialJustice #genderequality #agrifoodsystems

Agriculture in Gaza has collapsed. 70% cropland is damaged, food production decimated. Without urgent humanitarian access including for agricultural aid, Gaza's agrifood systems can't manage & famine looms. Agriculture is vital for resilience. Peace is essential. #FoodSecurity
Famine Review Committee Alert!❗️
There is a strong likelihood that famine is imminent in areas within the northern Gaza Strip.

Something is very wrong with a world in which hunger and malnutrition are a fact of life for billions of children, women and men.
On #WorldFoodDay, let’s take action to uphold the right to food for a better life and a better future.

On #RuralWomensDay and every day, it is critically important to invest in women in agrifood systems: for their well-being and that of their families, communities, and economies. #LetsGrowEquality

#RuralWomen are the backbone of agriculture - driving rural communities.
Yet, their immense contributions to agrifood systems often go unnoticed. On #RuralWomensDay & every day, let's recognize their role, invest in & empower women, & make agrifood systems work better for women.
Never tired of advocating for #womensandgirlsempowement in #agrifood systems! Thank you @FAOGeneva and @FAOBrussels for creating this opportunity at the #WorldFoodForum !

I condemn the broadening of the Middle East conflict with escalation after escalation.
This must stop.
We absolutely need a ceasefire.

Rural women & the woman farmer are vital to agrifood systems transformation. We need to improve their access to finance, adopt gender-responsive policies, ensure data-driven action, & develop capacities & networks. #LetsGrowEquality #IYWF2026 #COAG29 #SDGs #4Betters
"Women farmers play a decisive role in rural communities & contribute to a more sustainable, & food-secure world,"
-- at #COAG29 event @FAODG QU Dongyu emphasized the urgent need to empower women & girls in agriculture.
