Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition (FSN Forum)

The perspective of Chapter 1 does not consider sustainability in all its three dimensions in line with the 2030 Agenda. It is mainly focused on nutrition and malnutrition, it is too narrow approach and it does not fully reflect the challenging issue of a systemic perspective on food systems. It does not sufficiently consider the conditions under which food is produced, processed, distributed, prepared and consumed, nor how food systems can be made more sustainable in order to ensure healthy and sustainable diets development.

“Sustainable” should be inserted between “healthy” and “diets” . The definition of “sustainable diets” (FAO, 2010)  should be inserted in paragraph 32 among all other definitions.

In Paragraph 16, referring to promoting policy coherence, a reference to the One Planet (10YFP) Sustainable Food Systems (SFS) Programme should be inserted.

In paragraph 26 among stakeholder groups are missed fishermen organizations, after farmers organizations.

In paragraph 61, the One Planet (10YFP) Sustainable Food Systems (SFS) Programme should be inserted as an UN Multistakeholder Platform
