The Power of the Right to Food for Collective Action. Global Governance, Policy and Legislation to Realize the Right to Adequate Food | Development Law Service | Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations

2024 highlights the 50th anniversary of the CFS (established in 1974), the 20th anniversary of the Right to Food Guidelines (2004), and the 15th anniversary of the CFS Reform (2009). During this period States, international organizations, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), Indigenous Peoples’ organizations, private sector and other actors worked together to address the challenges and responsibility associated with building inclusive and sustainable food systems anchored in human rights.

The event will assess global food governance, emphasizing the CFS’s role in fostering inclusive, human rights-based food systems. It will highlight the advanced normative framework on the right to food, showcase policy and legislative progress from various actors, discuss key bottlenecks, and explore venues for cooperation and collective action to fulfill the right to food.

Join us on 24 October 2024, from 8:30 – 9:45 CEST to take part of the discussion which will underscore how the right to adequate food can guide national  responses to the food crisis, fostering international coordination, and shaping food systems transformation, providing a solid legal framework for cohesive action. Register now!

The event will be in English with interpretation in Spanish and French.
