All of them bound together by this notion that this world is not my home - I am just passing! Safe to say my current top 3 contributors to western philosophy: Emerson, Epictetus and Socrates 🙏🏽 – at Budapest, Hungary

Unwele Olude Qhawe 🖤🕊️ As a Black South African woman, I know that the freedoms I enjoy today did not come freely. They were fought for, sacrificed for, and won through extraordinary courage. Indeed, the Victory is Ours!

📍Poland. My love for growing food doesn’t stop at our farm. On the way back from Poland, reflecting on our work with @EFSA_EU on Polish agricultural landscapes - so much to learn from how culture, science, and farming intersect. linkedin.com/pulse/scenario-…

Purpose & scope Design and implement flora–fauna monitoring that integrates with EESE 2×2 km quadrants using standardized, widely validated methods. Outputs emphasize species richness and frequency...

The point of departure I aim for is similar to the experience of visiting a botanical garden: easy, spacious, and gently restorative. 🌱

"The Africa we want gang" meets again: How far with the state of agriculture in SADC? Political leadership needs way more accountability, the hypocrisy trickles all the way down to community.

News to me and maybe to you too. In Rome this week, optimism was high as member state leaders held a panel on investment opportunities and unveiled a $2 billion plan to boost farming, processing, and trade across the SADC region.. 🧵

The resilience of a nation's food system is inseparable from its economic sovereignty. #happyfoodday

Everyone has the right to food. Yet millions of people worldwide go to bed hungry. On Friday’s #WorldFoodDay, @WFP is calling for greater global efforts to ensure food reaches every person in need. wfp.org/global-hunger-crisis

From one corner of the world to another, Seestar users looked up and captured the same glowing Harvest Moon. ✨ No matter how far apart we are, the night sky has a way of bringing us together and reminding us that we’re all looking up at the same Moon. Where did you see the Harvest Moon from? Share your view with us. 🌍🌕 #Seestar #HarvestMoon #FullMoon #Moon #Astrophotography #Stargazing #Astronomy
