The Hub’s Khaled Eltaweel at #RFSD2024: Inspiring to see #ECA countries take significant steps towards #FoodSystems transformation, following the Secretary-General's Call to Action at #UNFSS2023. This call unites all food systems actors to accelerate the #SDGs & climate action.
Italy's focus on food security needs in #Gaza & support to @FAO & partners is vital & welcomed. Farmers need urgent access to agricultural inputs to resume food production. FAO is best positioned to rapidly distribute these vital inputs but we need access to deliver safely.
