SEDA’s founder heads to Philippines for Food Security Forum
SEDA’s founder and director recently had the exciting opportunity to head to Manila, Philippines to share SEDA’s message and meet with new donors. Asian Development Bank (ADB) hosted the international forum in Manila to discuss issues of food security in a changing world. The forum was a place for civil society organizations (CSOs) such as SEDA to collaborate with private investors. FAO and IFAD were present as donors for the event. The forum featured government investors discussing which countries they should invest in for food security, and how to increase the standing of small farm holders. Concerns surrounding climate change were central to the discussion. The event was an important step as SEDA continues to increase its focus on issues of agricultural development, climate change, and food security.
