- Today, Chad is hosting 1 million refugees. That’s 1 in 17 people. Helping countries like Chad will require much more international attention, coordination, and support. Not acting is not an option: fragility crosses borders, and growing crises in places like the Sahel have an impact on global security and development. In this environment, partnerships are going to be more important than ever to ensure a comprehensive response to the sort of crises we see now. On this episode of Talking Development, Managing Director of Operations Anna Bjerde is joined by @UNHCR High Commissioner Filippo Grandi. While on mission in Chad, they visited the Sudan border to see firsthand the scale of the influx of refugees fleeing Sudan due to ongoing violence and conflict.

À cause de sécheresses répétées, dans un environnement où l’eau est déjà rare, et les tempêtes aussi violentes qu’imprévues, la production agroalimentaire du pays est sous tension. Le Maroc a fait de ce défi une priorité, en lançant de nouveaux programmes, en innovant et en investissant dans l’agriculture climato intelligente, la production agroalimentaire et la gestion des ressources en eau.

- Building resilience requires action across the food production chain, and Egypt’s government has taken a multi-pronged approach. One of the foundational elements of the strategy is to improve and expand the capacity of grain storage. This helps reduce waste and loss across the food production system – and helps ensure wheat remains steadily available in the country, even in the face of external shocks. The World Bank’s "Emergency Food Security and Resilience Support" project is part of these efforts to expand and renovate Egypt’s food silos. Learn more: http://wrld.bg/ZzLo50PLIQG #FoodSecurity

- Description
