Aquatic Foods for Healthy People and Planet
Perihal kami
WorldFish is an international, nonprofit research and innovation institution that creates, advances and translates scientific research on aquatic food systems into scalable solutions with transformational impact on human well-being and the environment. Its mission is focused on SDG 2: Zero Hunger but pays special attention to SDG 14: Life Below Water, leveraging both of these goals to score progress on other multiple SDGs. Research explores the potential of aquatic food systems as an important source of food and their role in the global transformation of food systems toward healthier and sustainable diets in the face of climate crisis. For over 45 years, WorldFish has firmly established itself as a global leader in research and innovation in sustainable and equitable aquatic food systems. Its work has enhanced the lives of millions of low- and middle-income people who depend on aquatic food systems for food, nutrition, livelihoods and overall well-being. Supported by a diverse network funders and investors aligned to shared goals, it has a global presence in 20 countries across Africa, Asia and the Pacific with 460 staff of 30 nationalities, deployed where the greatest sustainable development challenges can be addressed. WorldFish is part of One CGIAR, the world’s largest agricultural innovation network, whose mission is to “end hunger by 2030 through science to transform food, land and water systems under threat of climate change.” WorldFish is committed to promoting a work environment where diversity and inclusion is valued and we seek to have gender balance in the organization. We aim to also seek balance across other diversity dimensions. People in WorldFish are treated equally irrespective of gender, ethnicity/race, national or social origin, disability, religion, political affiliation, age, family size, marital status or any other form of personal identity.

💡 WorldFish was thrilled to be part of this significant event to launch the CGIAR Water System Roadmap with the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) at Cairo Water Week! Water sits at the heart of aquatic food systems and this new roadmap will be instrumental in informing our work in water resource management, irrigation, integrated agriculture-aquaculture, in-pond raceway, and many more! #AquaticFoods #FoodSystems #FoodPolicy #BlueEconomy #Fisheries #SmallScaleFisheries #Aquaculture #Water #WaterSecurity #FoodSecurity #NutritionSecurity #LivelihoodSecurity #Equity #Justice #Climate #SharedProsperity Ahmed Nasr-Allah
🔊 💦 On October 15, during #CairoWaterWeek2024, IWMI launched the CGIAR Water Systems Integration roadmap for 2024-2030. The event was co-convened by Ministry of Water Resources & Irrigation (MRWI), WorldFish, ICARDA; International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas and International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). 💧 🗺️ The session opened with remarks from Hani Sewilam, Minister of MRWI, who emphasized the urgent need for a roadmap to address water scarcity. Mark Smith IWMI’s Director General, highlighted the importance of integrating the capabilities of CGIAR centres to effectively confront these challenges within a ‘’Basin-to-gene’’ paradigm. 🌊 🐟 🍞 Speakers and panelists discussed the priorities and the interconnectedness of water resources and food systems in Africa, and how the newly introduced roadmap will help in channeling research and development efforts to enhance the resilience and sustainability of the water and food systems. It integrates water management across scales leveraging 15 CGIAR centres' expertise. 🤝 The CGIAR's Water System Roadmap strives to foster innovative partnerships, enhance data sharing, incorporate climate security, and promote cross-sector collaborations, among other goals. #OneCGCIAR

👏 Thank you, Nada Tantawi, for describing Koshari, Egypt's most famous dish—a hearty mix of rice, lentils, and pasta topped with a spicy tomato sauce and crispy onions. 🌾💧🐟 Integrated Agriculture-Aquaculture is vital for improving water use efficiency and food production in Egypt's dry land areas. Through the CGIAR Initiative on Fragility to Resilience in Central and West Asia and North Africa, WorldFish, IWMI and the wider CGIAR centers work to effectively balance water requirements in agriculture and aquatic foods production in Egypt and other dryland areas. This #WorldFoodDay, International Rice Research Institute, International Water Management Institute (IWMI), and WorldFish are coming together to discuss our efforts for a secure and sustainable future where water, food, and aquaculture systems thrive together.
