Gender equality in science & innovation is essential for transforming agrifood systems. Yet women remain underrepresented in STEM education, research careers & innovation spaces.

@FAOScienceChief, Mona Chaya & @lidderpr on why closing this gap is vital➡️ https://t.co/90L8rlvfTW

[FAO Director-General QU Dongyu @FAODG]

Peace is a prerequisite for food security. When aid workers face violence, food security collapses, displacement rises, and resilience erodes. Protecting humanitarian workers is inseparable from protecting those they serve. #ActForHumanity #WorldHumanitarianDay

[FAO Director-General QU Dongyu @FAODG]

Deeply saddened by the passing of David Nabarro. Since starting as @FAO DG in 2019, I was always inspired by his energy, deep commitment and unwavering belief in food security and nutrition for a better world. He will be profoundly missed.

Food is the foundation of life, yet funding for sustainable food systems is declining.

@laurenObaker & @PelumKenya urge more finance & direct access for communities to fix food systems.

[FAO Social & Economic Development @FAOSocioEcon]

Transforming agrifood systems requires multiple levers to enhance sustainable practices, decent incomes & healthier food choices.

No single strategy fits all, but together, we can enhance the value of agrifood systems.
