Gender equality in science & innovation is essential for transforming agrifood systems. Yet women remain underrepresented in STEM education, research careers & innovation spaces.

Peace is a prerequisite for food security. When aid workers face violence, food security collapses, displacement rises, and resilience erodes. Protecting humanitarian workers is inseparable from protecting those they serve. #ActForHumanity #WorldHumanitarianDay

Deeply saddened by the passing of David Nabarro. Since starting as @FAO DG in 2019, I was always inspired by his energy, deep commitment and unwavering belief in food security and nutrition for a better world. He will be profoundly missed.

@laurenObaker & @PelumKenya urge more finance & direct access for communities to fix food systems.
