The Dialogue meeting is opened by Dr Jaana Husu-Kallio, the Secretary General of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry together with Ms Elina Kalkku, State Under-Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There will be four introductory speeches: 1) on the FSS, 2) on the systems approach to food analysis, 3) on the European Policy Response to Food Systems and 4) on how Finland can contribute to Global Food Systems development.

The meeting is then divided into five working groups, according to the Action Tracks. The WGs will discuss 1) the strengths and weaknesses of the national food system, 2) how to improve the national food system on the way to 2030 and 3) what do we have to showcase for the global audience.

The WG chairs report on the discussion to the plenary session. A synthesis and the way forward is outlined by the curator.
