Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) on Thursday reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Africa beyond 2025.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Director-General was invited to participate in a G7 panel session with agriculture ministers in Syracuse, Italy, on how best to support Africa\u2019s post-Malabo agenda. Agreed by African heads of state and government at the 2014 African Union Summit in Equatorial Guinea, the Malabo Agenda set out an ambitious list of concrete agricultural goals to be achieved by 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2023, more than one in five Africans were affected by hunger, amounting to nearly 300 million people,\u201d said Qu and added that \u201cwithout accelerated action and increased resource mobilization, it is projected that the number of people facing hunger in Africa will rise by an additional 10 million by 2030.\u201d The continent remains the most food-insecure region in the world, with 58 percent of its population experiencing moderate or severe food insecurity.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuccess is possible,\u201d Qu said, \u201cbut we need to all work together, across the continent and with all partners if we are to achieve the transformation of African agrifood systems to be more efficient, more inclusive, more resilient and more sustainable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, FAO remains committed to supporting the post-Malabo process, which highlights the necessity for a comprehensive transformation of the continent\u2019s agrifood systems that effectively, efficiently, and coherently addresses food insecurity, poverty, and the impacts of the climate crisis.<\/p>\n

FAO\u2019s involvement in Africa<\/p>\n

FAO has always supported the Malabo Process and the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme. Since 2017, it has been collaborating with the African Union Commission to contribute to the Programme\u2019s biennial reporting mechanism, providing capacity-building for monitoring the Malabo Declaration\u2019s commitment to enhancing the resilience of livelihoods and production systems to the impacts of the climate crisis and other related risks.<\/p>\n

This work has been carried out using FAO\u2019s Resilience Index Measurement and Analysis through the provision of technical support to country experts, mapping national household data for all of Africa\u2019s 54 countries, and conducting several training sessions. Recently, FAO has launched a digital toolkit designed to empower countries to generate the required indicators.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish to reaffirm FAO\u2019s continued focus and commitment to supporting Africa in achieving the post-Malabo agenda,\u201d said the Director-Genral.<\/p>\n

After January 2025, FAO\u2019s existing data, tools, and approaches will support the design, implementation, and tracking of the post-Malabo agenda.<\/p>\n

For example, FAO\u2019s policy monitoring and public expenditure analysis will help governments track their commitments and optimize their policies. Furthermore, the FAO Global Roadmap to achieving SDG2 without breaching the 1.5\u00b0C threshold will ensure that the continent\u2019s actions align with and benefit from the global agenda.<\/p>\n

FAO\u2019s support extends beyond providing knowledge and evidence to countries. It is also driving changes on the ground. For example, the FAO Flagship Hand-In-Hand Initiative supports 40 countries across the continent.<\/p>\n

The Director-General said this year\u2019s Hand-in-Hand Investment Forum, which is due to take place in mid-October at FAO\u2019s headquarters in Rome under the umbrella of the World Food Forum 2024, will witness 13 African countries engage with investors to accelerate transformation through concrete projects.<\/p>\n
