I join other African leaders in reiterating that a continent of around 1.3 billion people needs a permanent voice and seat at the UNSC represented through a bloc. Issues and decisions that concern the continent cannot continue being addressed without continental representation.

#Ethiopia our beauty is in our unity. When we stand together, we can overcome anything. We stand on the shoulders of our ancestors that paid great sacrifices for us and today we stand committed to laying a solid foundation for generations to come. May God Bless #Ethiopia!

If we want to improve food security and nutrition, if we want to save the only planet we have, we've got to cut #foodloss. Globally 14% of food is lost because produce, dairy, meat & fish go bad in transit due to inadequate cold storage facilities and refrigerated transport.
