UN Food Systems Summit Action Track 3 - Public Forum

The ambition of the 2021 UN Food Systems Summit is to launch a collective journey of transforming our food systems to give us the best possible chance of delivering on the 2030 Agenda. Everyone has a role to play in this. Only by coming together and challenging one another we can spark new ideas and create meaningful impact.

Action Track 3 (AT3) focuses on boosting nature-positive production systems at scale to globally meet the fundamental human right to healthy and nutritious food while operating within planetary boundaries.

Today, neither people nor the planet are healthy. Great inequality exists in access to and control over natural and productive resources as well as decision making spaces, particularly for women and indigenous peoples. Food systems find their most prominent expression at the landscape level, while agricultural mosaic landscapes can also play an integral role in supporting biodiversity and climate mitigation, with producers acting as stewards of the land and ecosystem services. Landscapes can therefore be considered the key scale for interventions to boost nature-positive production. Landscape approaches, broadly defined as frameworks for integrating policy and practice for multiple land uses within a given geographic area, can thus help to balance interests of multiple stakeholders, across different timescales.

Get involved

We have begun to define the nature of the tasks that AT3 will take on and how to implement them. To inform our next steps, we want to canvas ideas and create opportunities for you to participate, so we can listen to your input.

We would like your reflections on the following three questions:

• Do we have our topical focus in AT3 right?

• What does success look like?

• What is the best way of engaging with you as AT3 moves forward?

You are encouraged to join the conversation in the forum's live chat function.
