The Pre-Summit will take place from 26 – 28 July in Rome and the Summit in September. Therefore, from 3 June onwards, the Member State Dialogue Convenor Strategic Orientation sessions will focus on:
Representatives of the other workstreams (Action Tracks, Levers of Change, Scientific Group), as well as the Food Systems Summit Secretariat, may engage in these sessions to hear from National Convenors, offering feedback and answer specific questions. Their engagement will be valuable to National Convenors as they develop national pathways and consider priorities and approaches to partnership at regional and global levels in support of shared objectives.
Participation in these “Convenor Connections” sessions is optional and the invitation to join is open to all National Convenors. More details can be found in the third Status Update sent to all Member State Dialogue Convenors. Registration links are available in the Take Part Zone under the menu “National Convenors” and accessible by National Convenors and their designated support team only.
