#SaveTheDate | 19 March | 14:00 CET | @AfricaResilient & @FAO host a webinar on shocks, agriculture & food security. See how FAO’s DIEM initiative and African scholars turn data into actionable insights across Mali, Chad, Burkina Faso, Niger & DRCongo. bit.ly/479LNJk

Immediate foreseen consequences: Fertilizer shortages, higher energy costs > Lower yield and production raising food prices in low income, import-dependent countries remittance flows at risk > income decrease sustained shift toward biofuels > diverting crops from food production.

The absence of permanent African seats on the Security Council is indefensible. The Security Council must reflect today’s world. This is 2026 — not 1946. Whenever decisions about Africa and the world are on the table, Africa must be at the table.

Acute food insecurity has tripled to 300 million people since 2016, yet funding is stuck at 2016 levels. @FAO’s 1st #GlobalAppeal urges urgent investment in agriculture — scaling with food aid to reach more people, at lower cost. Every dollar must count. bit.ly/4oAEXCy

In situations as confused & complex as the one we now face in Venezuela, it's important to stick to principles: Respect for the @UN Charter. Respect for the sovereignty, political independence & territorial integrity of states. The prohibition of the threat or use of force. The power of the law must prevail. International law contains tools to address issues such as illicit traffic in narcotics, disputes about resources & human rights concerns. This is the route we need to take.

Just when it seems there are no words left to describe the living hell in Gaza, a new one has been added: “famine”. This is not a mystery — it is a man-made disaster, a moral indictment and a failure of humanity itself. Famine is not only about food; it is the deliberate collapse of the systems needed for human survival. People are starving. Children are dying. And those with the duty to act are failing. As the occupying power, Israel has unequivocal obligations under international law — including the duty of ensuring food and medical supplies of the population. We cannot allow this situation to continue with impunity. No more excuses. The time for action is not tomorrow — it is now. We need an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages and full, unfettered humanitarian access.

#IPC confirms famine in Gaza (Phase 5, worst case): – 641,000 people face starvation & death – Famine spreading beyond Gaza City – Child malnutrition soaring: 12,000 in July (6x Jan) A ceasefire is the only way humanitarian aid can reach those in need. tinyurl.com/mrwsxfmb
