Why are cowpeas a top priority for the future of sustainable food systems?
As climate challenges strain global agriculture, scaling climate-resilient crops like cowpeas is an essential priority.
Here’s why:
They replenish soil nutrients naturally
They grow in tough ...climates with minimal water and inputs
They deliver accessible, protein-packed nutrition
Prioritizing resilient pulses like the cowpea is how we build food systems that nourish people and protect the planet.
Transforming our agricultural systems means prioritizing crops that restore the soil while feeding the future.

Fonio is one of West Africa’s oldest cultivated cereals and a true climate-resilient supergrain. Naturally gluten-free, rich in essential amino acids, and cooked in under 3 minutes, fonio is as versatile in the kitchen as it is vital for our food systems.

Good news! Global hunger has declined, with major gains in Asia and Latin America & the Caribbean.
Progress is possible, but millions still face hunger.
Let’s keep investing, innovating and acting to make Good Food for All a reality for everyone. 💚

One week. Countless pots. Zero personal space left 😂
Better Off Alone? The Chefs Manifesto crew clearly didn’t get the memo — because this squad only knows how to cook up solutions TOGETHER. 🍽️🔥
After plating solutions for Africa’s food systems together, we may ...be going our separate ways, but we’ll be taking lifelong friendships, memories and lessons home with the promise of working together to achieve #goodfoodforall 🍲🕺
