Smallholder farmers are among those most vulnerable to disasters, many of which are predictable.
By linking #AnticipatoryAction and #SocialProtection, we can mitigate the impacts of disasters.
Why react to disasters if we can protect communities ahead of time?

Great to connect with Ambassador Zahneisen @GermanyUN today and discuss Germany’s leadership in supporting #AnticipatoryAction to prevent food crises, and championing the impact and cost-effectiveness of investing in agriculture in emergencies. @FAOinemergencies
Disasters are occurring 4X more often today than in the 1970s.
