UNGA78 | Food+ Forum Remarks | Dr Agnes Kalibata, President, #AGRA “Intra-Africa trade is currently at 15%. Africa does not trade with itself on food. Africa gets food from everywhere else except Africa. There exists opportunities for the continent to eat what we produce, and produce what we eat. This is the food systems transformation needed for the continent.” #ACTNOW #GLOBALGOALS #UNGA #AGRAIMPACT #FOODSYSTEMS @AFSollinger @ForeignPolicy @wef @blackiesq

Just briefed at a #UNGA Special Session on the #ChadCrisis. As I explained – I'm v. concerned by the lack of support from the international community; the appeal for assistance made by the President of Chad has gone largely unanswered. More support must be mobilized immediately.
