Distinguished Guests
Dear participants
Ladies and gentlemen
All protocols duly observed
On behalf of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Mr Moussa Faki Mahamat and on my own behalf, I would like to welcome you in AU premises and I wish you all a happy celebration of 1st March 2023.
Cognizant of this fact, the Assembly of Heads of State instituted the African Day of School Feeding on 01 March of every year to rally and discuss the role of HGSF in contributing to the African Union’s vision of an integrated, prosperous and peaceful continent. This celebration is also a reminder for us to assess what has been done so far, to address current policies and bring innovation to foster HGSF. It is also an opportunity to reinforce advocacy and visibility of the HGSF approach, and its relevance for children, education and nutrition, to all levels of governance bodies: Central, local, but also, all partners and actors such as private sector, elected parliamentarians, Civil Society, etc. that could play a key role to boost HGSF.
Ladies and gentlemen
Before I conclude, I would like to share with you some key messages:
