Registration for the 9th International Forum on Food and Nutrition , which will take place on 27 and 28 November, at Hangar Bicocca in Milan is now open.
Following the first international forum in Brussels and in New York, the International Forum on Food and Nutrition returns to Italy for a two-day event, to provide substantial food for thought on the delicate issues linked to food sustainability.
ENABLING FOOD SYSTEMS TRANSFORMATION TOWARDS SDGs
World population keeps growing; obesity is rising to the highest level, while food insecurity is forcing people to migrate. Food is wasted instead of feeding the hungry.
We have to tackle such challenges now. It is the only way to ensure a future for humankind, for our Planet, for each of us.
Together we will pave the way for answering concretely the most critical questions for the future of food sustainability.
Food and nutrition are defining features of the 21st century and can contribute to achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
For this to happen, we need a better understanding of how food systems and nutrition patterns will impact and/or contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the roles of international organizations, governments, research and academia, civil society and private sector in this process.
The 9th edition of the BCFN International Forum on and Nutrition will be held on November 27-28, 2018. It will provide a unique opportunity to advance food, nutrition and sustainability in this Agenda, and better explore the relationship between food systems, nutrition, sustainable agriculture, development and migration.
