Agrifood crises aren’t linear. Risks cascade over time. Example: @FAO's Hormuz analysis shows how energy shocks ripple through fertilizer, productivity and food security. Modeling can predict crises and identify policy combinations that boost resilience. https://t.co/xeHzPqdSuB

Did you know ~60% of all human infectious diseases are zoonotic – and ~75% of emerging pathogens “jump species”?

We need cross-sector collaboration to prevent the next big outbreak.

To build a better future, we need to address global health issues. To do this, we must collaborate across all sectors.

Why? Because human, animal, plant and environmental health are all inextricably linked.
