Скачать или смотреть FOOD INSECURITY IN AFRICA - Ruth Oniyang'o, Professor of Nutrition - The Agenda with Stephen Cole

WHAT’S THE ISSUE?
Africa is already the world’s most food insecure continent. Acute food insecurity rose 60 percent in the year to February 2021 – largely as a result of the so-called three c’s – COVID, conflict and climate change.
But with Ukraine and Russia supplying millions of tonnes of wheat, maize and sunflower oil to Africa every year until now, many countries – from Egypt to Tanzania, Kenya to Nigeria – are going to have to look elsewhere for their supplies, and find the money to buy them in a world of soaring food prices.
Here, Professor Ruth Oniyang’o, founder and Editor-in-Chief of the African Journal of Food, Agriculture, Nutrition and Development joins Stephen to explain the truly global impact of the crisis in Ukraine.
