Evolving Landscapes: Are Our Diets and Food Systems Adaptable and Resilient?
December 3 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Speakers
Evolving landscapes, in a climate-challenged world, affect, and are also affected by our responses to transform food systems. Changes, such as rapid urbanisation, migration, conflicts, drought, rising sea-levels, and salinity, are threats to global food baskets, affecting the food and nutrition security of vulnerable populations. Often, food systems approaches are not responsive to rapid changes, especially in adapting to climatic threats. Context-specific, nutrition-sensitive food systems approaches, co-designed, owned, and evaluated by the people, are key pathways to respond to such evolving landscapes, both in space and time.
