Yesterday, we celebrated Mrs Teresa Mariz, an Angolan farmer recognised among the FAO 100 Women Heroes in Agrifood Systems and Rural Development! A proud moment for Angola and a tribute to women building resilient communities. Happy International Year of Women Farmers 2026!
This #WorldFoodDay, we celebrate parents at DC Kura Methodist School🇬🇭 who recognize the importance of #SchoolMeals.
Their initiative to contribute yams every 2 weeks, is helping sustain WFP’s school feeding programme, while keeping their children nourished & ready to learn.
On 2 Oct, one of our @WFP colleagues detained in Yemen was released. I am relieved that he is reunited with his family.
My thoughts remain with all the humanitarian staff still detained, 37 from WFP. We continue all efforts to secure their immediate and safe release.
Horrific. A driver was killed while delivering food to families in Kadugli. The truck was clearly marked as humanitarian.
We mourn his loss and extend condolences to his family.
This is outrageous. Accountability and respect for humanitarian workers must be ensured.
One investment. Over 7 years of impact.
More than 7 years after receiving her first @WFP support, Mary has built a thriving #TomBrown enterprise, trained over 600 young people, and continues to create opportunities for farmers and women in her community. #WorldSheaExpo2026
On the first day of #UNGA, @antonioguterres and I met about the critical role @WFP plays in promoting peace, prosperity, and hope.
We agree: in addition to the work of feeding people, WFP is also a force for positive transformation both inside the @UN and across the world.
The biggest moment on the diplomatic calendar is here. 🤝
WFP is at #UNGA81 with a clear message: investing in food security is not just a humanitarian imperative. It’s the foundation for global stability.

At the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, I was struck by this image of the Akosombo Dam. The World Bank helped finance its construction in the 1960s. An extraordinary undertaking for a young nation and a powerful reminder that Africa has long had the vision and capacity to build at scale. #Ghana
