Dear participants,
We would like to thank all of you who contributed to the online Call for Submissions on the “20th anniversary of the Right to Food Guidelines – Call for inputs on the realization of the Human Right to Adequate Food”. We truly appreciate the time and effort that you put into submitting your contributions and have been reading your input with great interest!
The Call was hosted by the FAO Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition (FSN), running for a total of 16 weeks in May-June 2023 and in October-January 2024. In the course of those two phases, 112 submissions and comments were received, including from 56 countries and regions.
Looking towards the celebrations of the Right to Food Guidelines in 2024, which will include a Global Thematic Event on the “Advancing the uptake of the Voluntary Guidelines on the Progressive Realization of the Right to Adequate Food in the Context of National Food Security” at CFS 52 in October 2024, the results of this call will help inform on efforts made to realize the right to adequate food at local, national, regional or global level, and provide an important stock taking opportunity for countries and their people. We encourage you to review all the insightful contributions shared on the FSN website.
Should you wish to share any additional contribution, please do not hesitate to contact the FAO Right to Food Team ([email protected]).
The joint team of co-facilitators Ms Marie-Lara Hubert-Chartier, Ms Claire Mason and Ms Sarah Brand from the FAO Right to Food Team, and Ms Chiara Cirulli from the CFS Secretariat.
