At the launch of #SOFI2018 I would like to use this opportunity to advocate for a more systemic inclusion of gender and youth employment
Our efforts must be targeted on rural areas - investments remain crucial to respond to the scale of the problem. bit.ly/2CJhGwn pic.twitter.com/kdXclj8lph

I have no doubt that by working together and establishing better partnerships between government, the private sector, development partners, and with smallholder farmers themselves, we can step-up our capacity to deliver on the 2030 Agenda. #AGRF #GlobalGoals #SDGs #InvestInPeople

Transforming small farms into sustainable agribusinesses holds out the promise of employment for African youth while at the same time reducing poverty, hunger and malnutrition. #AGRF #AGRF18 #InvestInPeople #InvestInYouth #zerohunger #endpoverty

I would like to commend the #AGRF for its continued focus on putting smallholders in the limelight of these annual meetings. Yesterday, I had the chance to address the forum, and share my thoughts on agricultural transformation in Africa. #AGRF18 #HowWillYouLead #InvestInPeople pic.twitter.com/n2dNXoiJg0

At @IFAD, we insist on government contribution to the projects we finance for sustainability, and smallholder farmers should be at the centre of planning and the agriculture policy. #AGRF2018 pic.twitter.com/ThnP3epx99

Leadership and political will is the starting point of development. I see the challenge of African countries but this should not be an excuse not to meet their commitment to dedicate 10% of their budget to agriculture. #AGRF2018 #InvestInPeople #InvestInRuralPeople pic.twitter.com/kiHubZqDfa

Today, I gathered with colleagues at IFAD for a moment of silence to honor the legacy of Kofi Annan. He led the UN through some difficult times, he was an inspiration to many and his voice will be missed.

Arrived in #Niger with @WFPChief and @grazianodasilva for joint mission.
We want to see the sustainability of the actions we are taking in #Niger, so as the projects close, the communities can take them to the next step.
