Description
In September 2021, the UN Secretary-General António Guterres will convene a Food Systems Summit as part of the Decade of Action to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
Ahead of this event, the Philippine Department of Agriculture will spearhead the conduct of the National Food Systems Dialogue on 13-14 July 2021. The event will embrace the Summit principles of engagement: Act with Urgency, Commit to the Summit, Be Respectful, Recognize Complexity, Embrace Multi-Stakeholder Inclusivity, Complement the Work of Others, and Build Trust.
The dialogue will apply the “whole-of-nation” approach, wherein a diversity of stakeholders, will be involved, including voices that are seldom heard, and provide an important opportunity for participants to debate, collaborate, and take action towards a better future.
Guided by the UNFSS Five Action Tracks, the dialogue will serve as the convergence activity that will guide the crafting and development of the proposals, programs, partnerships, and activities for the various key players in agriculture, policymaking, business, food aid, and indigenous communities.
This event is expected to result in the shaping of national pathways to sustainable food systems and expressions of intention to support the pathways from a broad range of stakeholders, providing opportunities for these stakeholders to engage in preparations for the Summit through structured interactions.
