INTERNATIONAL FORUM on FOOD and NUTRITION
Event Information
Description
Migration and Agri-Food Systems, Causes and Solutions
There are questions about food, which seem to be about a distant future. But they are not. Tackling the complexity of such challenges now is the only way to ensure a future for the Planet and for the People. How do we feed a growing global population with more sustainable agricultural practices? How do we re-orient the relationship between food systems and migration to guide policy priorities in the EU Agenda? Why is food so essential for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals? The International Forum on Food and Nutrition will answer these questions with concrete proposals to inspire policy makers, new generations and civil society.
