Balancing The Pandemic, Biodiversity And Farming

Farms. Food. Future.

We have news on how farmers in the developing world are dealing with the COVID 19 crisis from IFAD’s Marie Haga. Also IFAD’s UN Goodwill Ambassadors actors Idris and Sabrina Elba talk to us about why they support IFAD and its recently launched Facility that’s designed to deal with the impacts of the crisis. We celebrate World Environment Day with IFAD's Margarita Astralaga. And we have the latest on why land rights are so important. Plus Italian Celebrity Chef Carlo Cracco tells us all about his experiences visiting IFAD projects and just why he thinks governments should be investing in rural communities. Then there’s more cooking with a tin can from IFAD’s Recipes for Change chefs Lance Seeto in Fiji and our newest celebrity chef Bela Gil in Brazil.
