Farming for the Future: Sustainable Agriculture and an End to Deforestation
Food systems and forests have a crucial role to play in addressing the intersection of climate, economic, and health challenges afflicting our world today. This session will explore the transformative role of policy, technology, and inter-sectoral cooperation as promising avenues for addressing the transformation of food systems to reverse climate change and biodiversity and forest loss.
Bringing together indigenous communities, governments and the private sector, this session will consider:
- How are governments working to reform food systems and halt deforestation? How are they currently collaborating with indigenous communities?
- What is the role of digital technologies and other innovations to accelerate a sustainable and inclusive transformation of agriculture and food systems?
- How are investors/international cooperation playing a role in shifting sustainable consumption?9
