“Food systems are central to our lives, our well-being and our societies. This is particularly true in the Sahel and West
Africa, where the majority of the population makes its living from food-related activities. While food production is growing strongly, the share of people exposed to food and nutrition insecurity is high and increasing. Poverty levels are among the highest in the world, yet food prices – at comparable income levels – are also among the highest.”
