Food Systems: Harnessing nutrition co-benefits of climate resilient agriculture
Food Systems: Harnessing nutrition co-benefits of climate-resilient agriculture
04 June 2021
13:30 – 15:00 CEST
Climate change, food systems, and food and nutrition security are strongly interlinked. The food we eat, and how we produce it, will determine the health of people and planet.
Climate change has an impact on livelihoods and food choices, undermining current efforts to reduce hunger and promote nutrition. Extreme weather and climate events have already increased in frequency, intensity and severity. We know that major changes must be made to food systems to increase access to affordable, healthy diets for everyone.
Join us, along with panellists from academia, research, governments, civil society and development agencies, to discuss the climate-nutrition nexus, including:
- The body of evidence showing the interlinkages between climate and nutrition and the existing research gaps
- The potential solutions that optimize the synergies between climate change and nutrition and minimize trade-offs
- The policy and programmatic approaches adopted by governments and development partners to address present and future challenges
Learn about four new publications on the benefits of investing in approaches that integrate climate-smart and nutrition-sensitive approaches.
