A Taste of Change: The Power of African Ingredients

Virtual Event, 21/01/2024 - 30/06/2024

With Sub-Saharan Africa's population projected to double by 2050, the challenge of employing and providing enough food for all becomes crucial. But here's the exciting revelation: Africa's abundant local grains and ingredients offer a compelling solution that goes far beyond its borders. Across the continent, ingenious and sustainable food solutions are thriving, and they deserve the global spotlight.
That is why the World Bank Western and Central Africa digital communications team is launching an Instagram video series that celebrates the vibrant flavors of the sub-region.

To kick off the series, the first episode will be an Instagram collaboration with FAO, featuring the millet grain and renowned Sierra Leonian chef Fatmata Binta. This is aligned with FAO’s Year of the Millet campaign.
