Dear Colleagues,
Join IIED on 25 November for an online event: Food systems of the poor: shaping the agenda for the Food Systems Summit.
The world is producing more food than ever, but hunger and malnutrition persist, and production methods are harming our natural environment. A better food system is needed, but we need to ensure that it works for consumers in low-income countries.
In the lead up to the UN Food Systems Summit in 2021, this IIED event will discuss how food systems transformation can be relevant for people living in poverty.
With speakers:
Andrew Norton (moderator), director, IIED
Jessica Fanzo, Bloomberg distinguished professor of global food policy and ethics at the Berman Institute of Bioethics, the Bloomberg School of Public Health, and the Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) at the Johns Hopkins University
Jane Battersby, associate professor at the African Centre for Cities at the University of Cape Town, where she leads the food security and food systems cluster
Immaculate Yossa Daisy, regional advocacy manager for Uganda-East Africa, Hivos

Best wishes,
Anne
