UNFSS+2 Side Event - City, subnational and national governments join actions...

Title: City, subnational and national governments join actions with multiple actors towards healthy, inclusive, sustainable, and resilient food systems

Date: 24 July 2023        

Time: 12:30 - 13:30 CET       

Location: FAO HQ, Ethiopia Room 

Description: Transitions to sustainable food systems require many changes. Integrated solutions are needed to respond to multiple challenges. Urbanization plays an important role in this transition, as cities consume 70% of all food while contributing to GHGs, food waste and environmental degradation.

This Side Event aims at sharing success stories on how cities, subnational and national governments can join forces to deliver interconnected solutions for healthy diet, food losses and waste and resilience against shocks and stresses. It will also be an opportunity to promote innovative multi-stakeholder and multi-level food systems governance.

Organizers: UNEP, Coalition on Sustainable and Inclusive Urban Food System, Local2030 Coalition, Politecnico di Milano
