UN Food Systems Summit + 2 - Interview with FAO Director of Food Systems and Food Safety Division

From July 24 to July 26, the UN Food Systems Summit + 2 Stocktaking Moment will be held at the headquarters of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). It will be hosted by Italy, in collaboration with the Rome-based UN Agencies (FAO, IFAD, WFP), the UN Food Systems Coordination Hub and the wider UN system.
The high-level event will build on the momentum of the 2021 Food Systems Summit and will create a conducive space for countries to review progress on commitments to action and identify successes, enduring bottlenecks and priorities in order to close the implementation gap for food systems transformation.
The three-day meeting will further highlight the central role of food systems transformations in overall advancement of the Sustainable Development Goals ahead of the SDG Summit in September 2023, and advocate for urgent action at scale, building on the latest evidence that sustainable food systems contribute to better and more sustainable outcomes for people, planet and prosperity leaving no one behind.
In this interview, Corinna Hawkes, Director of the Food Systems and Food Safety Division at FAO, discusses the main challenges facing the agrifood system and how we can transform the system to make it more resilient and sustainable, and what we can expect from the upcoming UN Food Systems Summit + 2 Stocktaking Moment.
