A economista Eleni Gabre-Madhin esboça a sua ambiciosa visão de instituir o primeiro mercado de bens de consume  na Etiópia. O seu plano criará riqueza, minimizará os riscos para os agricultores e transformará o maior beneficiário da ajuda alimentar num fornecedor de alimentos local.

Um mercado de bens de consumo para a Etiópia

Transforming African agriculture means more than increasing yields; it requires empowering farmers with real choices. In Ethiopia, despite bumper harvests, 300,000 tons of maize were left to rot while millions faced famine, all because markets failed to connect supply to demand. By creating a commodities exchange tailored to local realities, small farmers gain access to transparent prices, risk management, and national trading networks. This shift promises a future where African farmers move from mere survival to driving growth and well-being.
