In September 2019, FAO launched the hand in hand initiative to help achieve SDGs, especially ending poverty and hunger.
The initiative aims to use innovative technology and methodologies to identify the best opportunities to improve the livelihoods of rural population.
Josefa Sacko, AU Commissioner for Rural Economy and Agriculture of the African Union, said new ideas are needed to end the twin challenges of hunger and poverty.
"Two intertwined challenges of our time keep persisting on the continent. It's time to admit that business as usual and doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result defeats the tents of wisdom," said Sacko.
The AU Commissioner for Rural Economy and Agriculture also emphasized ending various conflicts in the African continent is crucial if the food security goals across the continent are to be realized.
"We need to creatively find the common ground and common mechanism for addressing the nexus between conflict and food security," said Sacko.
