Great job at the CFS policy. However, my contribution is in line with the issue of conflict and war. Data shows that malnutrition correlates well with areas struggling with conflict and wars. What policy measures can we include in this document that address issues of food and food systems in times of wars and conflict?
I also felt the aspect of access to technologies, resources are skewed to some extent on in developed countries. Can the policy pronounce itself on this issue? I know for instance some developed parts of the world have invented and protected their intellectual properties and yet these are so critical in addressing malnutrition, food production, etc in developing parts of the world. How do we ensure that these tools/technologies are accessible to all citizens of the world at a fair price if necessary?
I also feel the issue of gender in relation to nutrition & food system is so important in dealing with malnutrition. Is it possible to spell independently policy proposals that are critical in addressing the underlying gender interplay on malnutrition? I feel mixing it up in other areas may not bring it to the fore.
Thank you
