Neglecting rural people exacerbates poverty, hunger, and forced migration - and can lead to greater instability.

We need to bolster investments that tackle the root causes of food insecurity.

I was honoured to meet @UNSGSA Queen Máxima at #Davos2024

Her Majesty is a champion of financial inclusion and a key @IFAD supporter, particularly our efforts to bring digital tools to rural areas.

I look forward to working on our shared priorities further.

[Alvaro Lario @IFADPresident]

My top takeaway from #Davos2024:

Private sector investments, know-how, and access to markets and technologies are essential to transform rural economies.

At @wef and beyond, @IFAD is working with agri-food businesses to ensure that small-scale farmers come first.

For years, @idriselba and @Sabrinadhowre have highlighted the critical role smallholder rural farmers play in feeding the world.

They truly deserve this honour and I was happy to share this moment with them.

@ReneeFleming @Sabrinadhowre 'Please don't lose courage' - @idriselba tells #wef23 it takes stamina to stay the course, as he calls on business to continue to invest in mitigating against climate change.

[World Economic Forum @wef]

@ReneeFleming .@Sabrinadhowre tells #wef23 about the overlooked role of small-scale farmers all around the world. We are here today as a voice with those who are not being heard, she says.

[Alvaro Lario @IFADPresident]

Very pleased to meet with @cindymccain, the new @USUNRomeAmb. The U.S. has long been a strong supporter of @IFAD and we look forward to strengthening our partnership through promoting #FoodSystems transformation, tackling the climate crisis & reducing hunger and poverty @USUNRome

@linamichi Maybe an official change to CDCP would be in order? Or more relevant - actually listen and follow the recs?

Where’s the dislike button on Twitter? A bad precedent by Danone.

[Anna Swaithes @annaswaithes]

It's a sad day when even Danone's Board sends a strong signal that this year's bottom line remains a red line https://t.co/2nZ0xrOSvx via @FT https://t.co/Thcz1SPCvj

“I think that the face of rural women needs to change. They should not be seen as people who are waiting for handouts, but as people who are already doing the work”

IFAD Goodwill Ambassador @Sabrinadhowre at the Goals House #JanuaryDialogues

We couldn’t agree more!

[International Fund for Agricultural Development @IFAD]

Rural development is crucial for meeting the #SDGs.

Investing in rural people is investing in a brighter future for everyone.
