AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Food Security Alarm: UN FAO and WFP say acute hunger will worsen in 13 hotspots between June and November 2026, driven by conflict, funding cuts and El Niño-linked climate shocks; Madagascar is listed among the countries at rising risk. El Niño Funding Push: FAO/WFP launched a first-ever Joint Anticipatory Action Appeal seeking US$202 million to protect 8.8 million people across 22 high-risk countries, including Madagascar, with plans like cash transfers, climate-resilient seeds and flood control. Ocean Governance Momentum: African and Commonwealth nations at Kenya’s Our Ocean Conference urged fast implementation of the High Seas Treaty, warning that ocean protection still exists “on paper” despite pledges. Maritime Transparency Deal: Global Fishing Watch announced a partnership with Madagascar’s government to publicly share vessel tracking data for the domestic fishing fleet, aiming to boost fisheries accountability. Diplomacy: Russia’s Lavrov will meet Madagascar’s foreign minister Alice N’Diaye in Moscow on 19 June to discuss expanding trade, economy and cooperation. Energy & Industry: RES4Africa convened energy leaders on how renewables can strengthen Africa’s energy security and industrialisation. Tech & Connectivity: Ookla reports Starlink is faster than most terrestrial broadband providers in most Sub-Saharan markets, with Madagascar the only country showing faster median speeds from domestic providers.
