🌿 Plants are at the root of the right to food.
Healthy plants help make food available, support adequate diets, protect livelihoods and strengthen communities’ resilience to pests, diseases and climate shocks.
They also depend on clean, healthy and sustainable environments, because the right to adequate food and the right to a healthy environment are deeply connected.

At @FAO, we work in 6 languages and more! 💬
Multilingualism is at the heart of our work, helping to ensure that no voice goes unheard.
From sharing knowledge to supporting communities worldwide, we contribute to global efforts to achieve food security for all. 🍽️
Tell us in the comments 👉 What’s your mother tongue, and how many languages do you speak?
Food packaging helps keep food safe — but adds to plastic pollution.
Can recycled and alternative food contact materials be part of the solution without risking #FoodSafety? A new @FAO report explores how.

🌿 It’s #PlantHealthDay!
Stronger plant biosecurity means safer food, healthier ecosystems, protected livelihoods and safer trade.
In this special video message, Enrico Perotti, Secretary of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC), and Yurdi Yasmi, Director of @FAO’s Plant Production and Protection Division, explain why preventing the spread of plant pests and diseases matters for all of us.
Plant health is everyone’s responsibility — and biosecurity is our first line of defense.

Buying food from a farmers’ market is a great way to support farmers from your community! 👩🏻🌾👨🏿🌾
Many smallholder farmers face challenges to reach markets, so when you buy directly from them, you are helping to improve their livelihoods, and, in turn, you can go back home with locally grown fresh fruit and veggies. 🥕🥦🍎🍓

New Episode of The Work We Do is out!
In the latest episode, Charles Spillane, Chief Scientist of @fao, traces his journey from a farm in Ireland to one of the world's most influential roles in agrifood science - and the lifelong love of science fiction that helped shape his techno-optimistic worldview along the way.
He unpacks why scientific advances often don't reach farmers who need them most and what it takes to close the gap between knowledge and adoption.
He also weighs in on who owns agricultural data and how research funding models could be improved, and shares his vision for the future of agrifood science.

Sport can connect people in ways words sometimes can’t.
Through @fao Goodwill Ambassadors Programme, we had the chance to meet the @harlemglobetrotters and be part of something bigger than the game.
A special thank you to FAO for giving a small community like ours this opportunity, for the respect we received, and for making us feel part of something meaningful.
And thanks to the Harlem Globetrotters for the unforgettable experience and for the show tickets
Watch the video and live the moment with us.

Lo sport riesce a unire le persone in modi che a volte le parole non riescono a spiegare.
Attraverso il programma degli Ambasciatori di Buona Volontà della @fao, abbiamo avuto l’opportunità di incontrare gli @harlemglobetrotters e vivere qualcosa che va oltre il gioco.
Un grazie speciale alla FAO per aver dato a una piccola community come la nostra questa opportunità, per il rispetto con cui siamo stati trattati e per averci fatto sentire parte di qualcosa di importante.
E grazie agli Harlem Globetrotters per l’esperienza incredibile e per i biglietti dello show
