    Financing opportunities for cocoa processing in Côte d’Ivoire 2025
    Also available in:

    Côte d’Ivoire is the world’s leading producer and processor of cocoa beans. Its processing capacity now surpasses that of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, which until recently had held the top position. The government is continuing to encourage investment in local cocoa bean processing, which could account for 70 to 80 percent of national production by 2030. This study examines the prospects for investment in primary cocoa processing and the financing needs this objective entails.

    Côte d’Ivoire combler l’écart entre le secteur financier et les pisciculteurs
    Dossier d’investissement: amélioration des services financiers pour les éleveurs de tilapia
    2025
    Also available in:

    Ce document présente un dossier d’investissement portant sur des méthodes d’élevage de tilapia modifiées et améliorées en Côte d’Ivoire. Il s’appuie sur des informations relatives aux coûts, aux bénéfices et aux résultats de l’intervention financée par FISH4ACP en 2024 et 2025. Le tilapia est la principale espèce piscicole élevée en Côte d’Ivoire, avec une production annuelle d’environ 7 700 tonnes. Il ne représente qu’une petite partie de la production nationale, et la forte demande intérieure fait que le pays demeure fortement dépendant des importations de poisson. Les méthodes d’élevage du tilapia étaient auparavant peu efficaces. Toutefois, grâce aux actions menées par FISH4ACP pour améliorer la qualité et la disponibilité des alevins, renforcer les pratiques d’élevage, et introduire des technologies numériques, les performances financières des exploitations piscicoles ont été améliorées. Cette évolution est démontrée à travers des modèles financiers comparant les comptes d’exploitation des pisciculteurs avant et après l’appui de FISH4ACP.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
    Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
    2025
    While some progress and recovery have been made in recent years, the world is still above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and far from eradicating hunger and food insecurity by 2030 (SDG Target 2.1). Similarly, despite some progress in the global nutrition targets, the world is not on track to achieve SDG Target 2.2. Among other factors, persistent food price inflation has slowed this momentum.The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025 highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. Vulnerable groups, including low-income households, women, and rural communities, can be particularly affected by food price inflation, risking setbacks in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forwards. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Additionally, it calls for better data systems and sustained investment in resilient agrifood systems to build long-term food security and nutrition. These coordinated actions are vital to reignite progress towards ending hunger and malnutrition by 2030.
