"Sweden's Global Food Systems Dialogue: Boost nature-positive food production – for people and the planet"

In 2021, the world will convene for the first-ever UN Food Systems Summit to discuss and kick off a food systems transformation. All UN Member States have been invited to hold national Food Systems Summit Dialogues in preparation for the summit. Therefore, the Swedish Development Agency (Sida), the Swedish Ministry for Innovation and Enterprise, the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs, and the Swedish International Agriculture Network Initiative (SIANI), are arranging a series of Food Systems Dialogues that will feed into the summit and provide global perspectives to Sweden’s preparations.

Sweden’s third and final global Food Systems Dialogue will focus on how to achieve increased food security, protection of biodiversity, sustainable food production systems and restoration of degraded areas. What are the trade-offs? And how can we realise the human right to food within the boundaries of the planet?
