The Right to Food Forum is being convened by FAO from 1-3 October to review achievements and draw lessons learned from the experiences of key players in the field of the right to food. A number of country experiences will be presented and working groups will focus on the following thematic areas:

(i) Advocacy and Training.

(ii) Information and Assessment.

(iii) Legislation and Accountability.

(iv) Strategy and Coordination.

(v) Benchmarks and monitoring.

By putting into effect what is required in these five areas, countries will establish a stronger, more knowledgeable voices among both duty-bearers and right-holders, ensure right targeting, accessible justice, effective action and durable impact, and thus contribute profoundly to sustainable development and the achievements of the MDGs.
