Addressing the ongoing Continental Foresight consultation workshop for Agri-Food Systems in Nairobi, H.E. @MosesVilakati, Commissioner for Agriculture, Rural Development and Blue Economy @AU_DARBE said “Foresight is now a strategic AU priority to anticipate risks, guide investments & protect vulnerable populations amid climate shocks, and geopolitical tensions. It’s essential for achieving Agenda 2063 and CAADP Kampala Declaration on transforming Africa’s agrifood systems”. #ResilientAfrica #Agenda2063
Commissioner Vilakati highlighted the key policy directions for Africa’s agrifood foresight:
• Institutionalizing foresight in AU, RECs & national systems

🌍 The #AMCEN20 panel discussion in Nairobi was a powerful reflection on 40 years of environmental action in Africa! Ministers and experts united to shape a sustainable future, tackling environmental challenges faced by our Continent.#Environment#Africa2063
The Office of the IGAD Youth Envoy would like to congratulate H.E @cherinet_ the youngest ever diplomat in the continent upon presenting his credentials to the @UN Secretary General @antonioguterres as Permanent Observer to the United Nations.
We also would like to further appreciate the immense support and trust placed by Dr @DrWorkneh, the @IGADsecretariat Executive Secretary, on the youth by appointing them in more senior positions. This is a clear demonstration and manifestation of the tremendous goodwill of the institution in believing in youth talent and ability to serve at senior positions and strongly encourage the member states and other RECs to emulate him.
As part of our ongoing efforts to support youth participation in multilateral discussions and the global agenda.
The Youth Envoy will work very closely with Amb @cherinet_ to ensure that our member states include youth in their delegations to the UN meetings as well as sponsor them and champion the implementation of the IGAD Youth Policy 2023.
Once again, congratulations my brother Cherinet.
I am thrilled to extend my heartfelt congratulations to you H.E. Ambassador Josefa Sacko, well-deserved appointment as the Ambassador of Republic of Angola to Republic of Italy. Wishing you all the best!
I am profoundly honored to recieve appointment from my President H.E João Lourenço @joao_azlo to role of Extraordinary & Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Republic of #Angola to Republic of #Italy. I look forward to scaling up efforts to advance our National & International Agenda
