🌱🌍 Making food systems resilient means taking a systems approach - and that means recognizing and working with all the people who make up our food systems. Together, we can create solutions that endure. From earlier this year at @WEF. #FoodSecurity

Proud to have supported South Africa’s G20 presidency on behalf of @BiovIntCIAT_Eng and @CGIAR. Our policy brief presented at the Ag Ministers’ Meeting, highlights clear income, environmental and nutrition returns of investment in sustainable livestock in the global south.
At the @g20org Agriculture Ministers Meeting last week, I discussed a strategic opportunity for #Africa: harnessing livestock for climate resilience and food security. With @CGIAR science, Africa can take a lead in integrating livestock and climate policies.
