As part of his participation in the World Food Forum which is held in Rome, from October 16 to 20, 2023, the president of COP15 desertification, Mr. Alain-Richard Donwahi exchanged with the young people of the forum on the links between the food security and the fight against desertification. From these exchanges, it appears that all agree on the need to act together and in a coordinated manner in order to meet climatic and food challenges. At the heart of this collective commitment, youth, which carries innovations and which is increasingly aware and determined, must take its place. This is how we could ensure an ecological transition just around the world.
