Watch the event recording:
Nature and food systems are inextricably connected. Together they should thrive and rely on the services each provide. Sustainable production, consumption, and the fight against pollution are key thematic areas of the Leadership Dialogues at Stockholm+50, an event that provides a concrete opportunity to continue the amplification of sustainable food systems, and push to integrate them into the UNCCD, UNCBD and UNFCCC Conferences of Parties negotiations and outcomes.
The “Appetites for change: The power of food” event co-organized by WWF, the One Planet network Sustainable Food Systems Programme offers space to highlight champion countries, cities, and communities implementing critical system-based solutions. These sessions advanced our understanding of how we may contribute to sustainable food systems that deliver human and planetary prosperity with experts, driving environmental, social and economic impacts, the need to adopt a systems-based approach, and the potential for sustainable diets.
As part of our commitments to provide all people with healthy and nutritious diets that stay within planetary boundaries, WorldFish's Global Lead for Nutrition and Public Health, Shakuntala Thilsted, joined a panel discussion from 21:55-22:30 (UTC+8) to share bottom-up approaches that are inclusive, accessible and diverse connecting sustainable healthy diets in communities and indigenous groups with aquatic foods, via the framework of the WorldFish's '2030 Research and Innovation Strategy.'
