Mohammed, underscored the urgency of coordinated global action.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2020, global food price inflation has consistently outpaced general inflation in low-income countries, she stated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This means skipping meals, selling assets, or putting children out of school just so families can afford to eat in every region. These overlapping crises, conflict, climate shocks, inflation, and displacement are all exposing the deep fragility of our food systems.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the UN deputy chief underlined that cooperation must replace conflict, and we must transform systems that feed the world, urgently, systematically, and inclusively.<\/p>\n<p>The UNFSS+4 Stocktake provides a critical opportunity to assess progress made since the 2021 Food Systems Summit and to accelerate action towards achieving the 2030 Agenda.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Ethiopia<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
