Guyana’s Finance Minister, Dr. Ashni Singh, delivers remarks calling for integrated and coordinated action across agrifood systems. Speaking at a high-level ministerial dialogue at United Nations Headquarters in New York on Tuesday, he emphasizes the need for sustained investment to build resilience in agrifood systems.

The outlets report the remarks in the context of the 81st session of the UN General Assembly. Both sources describe Singh as reinforcing the idea that agrifood challenges require coordinated measures rather than isolated efforts, and that long-term funding supports stronger capacity and resilience. While neither outlet provides extensive detail on specific programmes in the excerpts, both agree on the core message delivered to the UN forum and the setting in which it is presented.
