.@isolinaboto, coordinator of @brubriefings, is bringing the final event to a close here in Brussels. She points out that whilst the future of ag cannot be discussed in 1/2 day, the initiative has recorded a 100% satisfaction rate on the usefulness of the policy dialogues!

When #Africa starts producing for its own #domestic #markets, there will be no holding back that continent and #AFCFTA is massive opportunity says @LenIshmael during the #BBFutureFood audience debate

To close the panel session at the @brubriefings, @Marissa_C_Ryan of @OxfamEU recommends that the future #ACP-#EU partnership around agriculture adopts a cautious approach to working with the private sector, and ensures policy coherence for a holistic approach

The 60th @brubriefings on the future of food and agricultural transformation begins with @europeaid reminding delegates that farmers' organisations and women's organisations should be at the core of the agenda. Delighted to join the panel to bring the experience of @Oxfam 🙌

Smallholder producers do not receive adequate recognition or political & financial support (local govt support). Public policy often biased towards industrial large scale agriculture - @Marissa_C_Ryan of @OxfamEU
#BBFutureFarming – at Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe, België
Private-sector cooperation and blended finance should not undermine the use of public funding targeted at reducing inequalities and creating an enabling environment for small-scale producers to thrive. - @Marissa_C_Ryan
#BBFutureFarming – at Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe, België
The programming phase of the EU’s development cooperation 2021-2027 (MFF/NDICI) should guarantee that FNS and agriculture remain key intervention areas for EU development cooperation, including adopting a holistic approach on food systems.

Technology has its place in aiding progress in Agriculture. Much discussion on climate resistant varieties, use of #blockchain & other digital techs to ensure quality & more. Tech played an impt role in Vanuatu’s ability to monitor illegal fishing - @LenIshmael

Ambassador @LenIshmael : The Tourism industry mainly relies on food imports as opposed to accessing the local market. Despite many years – little success in supplying tourism demand from domestic production and value chains”
