Her interview addresses critical areas: food access, agrifood system transformation, climate change, and digital innovation. Crowley also details how COVID-19 fostered agile, virtual work, ensuring food security and real-time policy support.

Germán Rojas, former FAO Information Officer, reflects on the strategic role of communications throughout FAO's 80-year history. He details the evolution from analog methods—like print and press relations—to digital technologies, and the challenges of coordinating communications in a decentralized, transforming organization.

Communications proved vital in supporting food security policies, major global hunger conferences, and establishing World Food Day. Rojas's insights show how FAO enhanced its public visibility, advocacy, and collective work against hunger, rural development, and international cooperation.

The Center for Biological Diversity experienced a fast and successful 2025, despite multiple investigations and attacks from President Trump and far-right House members aimed at intimidation. These efforts failed to slow us down.

Since Trump's second inauguration on January 20, we have filed 65 lawsuits. These actions targeted destructive policies, climate-killing fossil fuels, widespread chemical approvals, and the despoilment of vital ecosystems like the Everglades. We also fought corruption threatening wilderness areas and defended national parks from exploitation.

We are deeply grateful for your continued faith and anticipate more hard-fought battles and victories in 2026.

The FAST Partnership webinar explored how high-integrity carbon markets can mobilize climate finance for agrifood systems, aligning with national climate goals and social safeguards. Participants gained practical insights into voluntary and compliance markets, Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, and opportunities/risks for agrifood actors, including farmers, agribusinesses, and financial institutions.

The session emphasized policy conditions crucial for catalyzing private sector demand, such as robust governance, clear authorization, and strong MRV systems. By sharing real-world examples and policy insights, the webinar aims to help stakeholders responsibly scale carbon market participation and unlock sustainable investment.
