Governments have the tools to act and keep global warming within limits. What’s needed now is unity and ambition.

Let’s close the #EmissionsGap, and ensure a just transition for everyone, everywhere: https://t.co/WVy3xVinos

Global hunger declined for a third consecutive year in 2025, proving that progress is possible.

Yet 645 million people still faced hunger & 2.1 billion experienced food insecurity.

The right to food must become a reality for all.

Climate change goes far beyond the environment. It affects public health, economies, infrastructure, and communities worldwide.

Over the past 50 years, extreme weather events have caused more than 2 million deaths and US$4.3 trillion in economic losses.

It’s time to act #NowForClimate: https://t.co/hTG2VvVj5g

@UN We know now that the affordability of renewable energy is no longer the defining question. The real issue is whether political systems can make the transition possible. Ghana's experience highlights that institutional constraints, not technological ones—remain the biggest hurdle.

@UNCCDcso
Sustainable land governance is central to resilience. Secure land rights, inclusive policies, and accountable institutions can transform degraded landscapes into engines of prosperity. Let #UNCCDCOP17 champion governance that works for people and the planet. #SDG16

[Fidep Foundation @FidepF]

Drought is no longer a distant threat—it is today's development challenge. We call on #UNCCDCOP17 to deliver bold investments in drought preparedness, early warning systems, and resilient landscapes that protect lives and livelihoods in Africa. #SDG13 #DroughtResilience

Too often, we ask whether renewable energy is affordable. We should actually ask whether the politics make it possible. Ghana shows that the biggest barriers to energy transition are often institutional, not technical.

Every debate about hunger is about water. Every conversation on climate resilience is about water. Every discussion on vulnerability begins with water. Continue the dialogue at FIDEP's upcoming Water for People, Food and Planet conference. #ggf #ClimateAction #FoodSecurity

As Ghana advances its climate and food security agenda, investing in young people through initiatives like G2G Green School Gardens is an investment in a more sustainable and prosperous future.

[Fidep Foundation @FidepF]

The G2G school gardens mark a unique milestone in the collaboration between FIDEP Foundation and SIGRA, strengthening inclusive investment in innovation capital by advancing green innovation in schools.
Every seed planted today is an investment in a greener tomorrow

[Fidep Foundation @FidepF]

Today, the G2G initiative takes a major step forward as the G2G School Gardens are launched across the Northern Region of Ghana. The schools are ready. The districts are ready. SIGRA is ready. And FIDEP Foundation is ready to grow the future. https://t.co/aXa4NX9SmG

Giving Farmers a Voice

One statement stayed with me throughout the CIRAWA Agroecology Conference: "Farmers have the knowledge. Let farmers speak to policymakers."

It is a powerful idea. And an important one
