Hello,
I’m Amanda Namayi
As an advocate for Zero Hunger .& Climate Action, global moderator, and speaker, my journey into global advocacy began with a simple but powerful conviction: every voice matters. Whether it’s a farmer working to feed their community, a young innovator rethinking agriculture through technology, or a policymaker shaping international agreements, every voice deserves to be heard, connected, and empowered
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with international organizations and partners across the global food systems landscape, moderating conversations and speaking at some of the world’s most influential platforms. From the World Food Forum–FAO and the Africa Food Systems Forum to the UN Committee on World Food Security (CFS) and the UN Climate Change Conferences (COP), these opportunities have enabled me to connect grassroots realities with global conversations, helping bridge the gap between local communities and international decision-making.
My passion lies in championing inclusion across global food systems, ensuring that youth and vulnerable communities have a meaningful voice in shaping the future. I believe in creating conversations that move beyond dialogue to action, empowering young people, farmers, and local communities to help shape the decisions that affect their lives.
What I Believe In
I believe that change happens at the intersection of dialogue and action.
