In the heart of Brasilia, during the recent II Brazil-Africa Dialogue on Food Security, we stood at a pivotal moment in the global fight against hunger and poverty. This gathering brought together 44 African ministers and leaders from international organizations, underscoring a shared commitment to transforming food systems across the continent.
The dialogue was not just a meeting; it was a call to action. As Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva stated, “Africa is part of Brazil, and Brazil is part of Africa.” This sentiment reflects a profound historical connection and the potential for collaboration in addressing one of the most pressing challenges of our time—food and nutrition insecurity.
