Forbes reports on “Smallholder farmers being left behind” and features GAFSP, underscoring how GAFSP has been helping to unlock finance for smallholder farmers since 2010. Read the full story here.
"Across the Global South, smallholder farmers play an outsized role when it comes to food security, and yet they receive a tiny fraction of climate finance to cope with increasingly unpredictable conditions,” says Natasha Hayward, program manager at the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP), the world’s only multilateral partnership for food and nutrition security financing.
"The challenges facing global food systems continue to evolve and increase in complexity with the uneven impacts of climate change,” says Gabriel Ferrero, Spain's global food security ambassador, currently serving as a strategic advisor to GAFSP. “Smallholder and family farmers, who produce more than 80% of the food in value, are especially vulnerable.”
