#Africa saw a dramatic 20% increase in severe hunger in 2020, but you wouldn’t know it to listen to @AGRAAlliance as it faces resistance to its funding requests at its annual Green Revolution Forum in Nairobi. @Afsafrica @SAFCEI @IATP @drvandanashiva @ ipsnews.net/2021/08/fiddli…

Regional women's #FLEAT reflections: - Women are held back from playing leadership roles (cultural and patriarchal beliefs). - Only females are expected to play a family role. - Women are expected to be timid and not challenge the status quo. We need to change the narrative.
