World Agriculture Forum - Innovating for Sustainable Future

Message from the Director- Communications

I am very happy to be a part of the World Agriculture Forum, a truly unique platform that brings together key stakeholders in the global food and agriculture system. As the Director of Communication, I am committed to driving meaningful conversations, fostering collaborations, and ensuring that WAF’s vision reaches the right audiences to create real impact.

With seven years of experience in communication and a background in corporate banking, I bring a diverse skill set to WAF. My expertise in strategic communication, combined with my Master’s in Food Science (M.Sc) and Bachelor’s in Food Technology (B.Sc), allows me to bridge the gap between policy, investment, and sustainable agricultural practices. My experience working with international organizations like the Global Pulses Confederation (GPC) further strengthens my ability to advocate for innovative solutions, policy reforms, and investment in the sector.

WAF serves as a global convergence platform to facilitate farming, agro trade, and agri-food system transformation. Through strategic communication, we amplify knowledge sharing, promote data-driven decision-making, and accelerate progress across the agricultural value chain. By leveraging communication as a tool for change, I look forward to contributing to WAF’s efforts in shaping the future of agriculture and global food security.

Sincerely,

Michelle Dennis
