Kenya and Brazil have agreed to establish a Kenya–Brazil Parliamentary friendship group as part of a renewed push to deepen parliamentary, diplomatic, agricultural, and economic cooperation between the two countries.
This development followed a high-level engagement between lawmakers from both nations held on the sidelines of the 2nd Brazil–Africa Dialogue on Food Security, Hunger, and Rural Development in Brasília.
The Kenyan delegation, led by National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, held extensive discussions with their Brazilian counterparts, emphasizing the need for sustained parliamentary diplomacy to advance shared development goals particularly in food security, agricultural innovation, and rural transformation.
“In the spirit of South–South cooperation, our parliaments must take the lead in shaping policies that respond to the urgent challenges of hunger and underdevelopment,” said Speaker Wetang’ula.
“This partnership will help us build resilient food systems and create opportunities for knowledge exchange and legislative collaboration.”
