Food insecurity is one of the greatest shames of our modern world. It just doesn’t need to exist. Everyone deserves access to affordable and nutritious food. 🥘
🔴 @FAO.org & @WFP.org warn that acute food insecurity is deepening in 16 hunger hotspots, threatening to drive millions more into famine or risk of famine.
Time is quickly running out to avert widespread starvation in the areas of highest concern.

The potential and capacity is there for innovations to emerge from developing countries like Kenya, we just need to enable these. Applause 👏 to the UNEP Climate Fund for understanding this and supporting these innovators.
In Kenya, the Restoration Factory—an incubation programme enabled by the UNEP Climate Fund—is helping entrepreneurs develop climate-resilient businesses that support local communities and restore and preserve landscapes.
