@FoodSystems We need to re-examine the inclusive food systems from perspective also of resilient supply/logistics chains including transporters, traders who are mainly women. A better understanding of the complex rural-urban web of actors involved and the vulnerabilities
Fascinating insights from @DavidNdii:
1) Global finance is the new extractive industry in Africa that's no longer interested in minerals but instead hunts for high-yields.
2) "Coronavirus will be the final nail in the coffin of infrastructure-led growth”

Climate change is the storm that farmers all over the world are trying to weather.
Unpredictable weather patterns, pests like the swarms of locusts we are currently struggling with, and emerging diseases are now a threat to food security.
