Synopsis (short abstract) FAST is a multi-stakeholder partnership that aims to catalyze and accelerate the transformation of agriculture and food systems by 2030 for people, climate, and nature. The Partnership was developed to implement activities and achieve the objectives of the FAST Initiative, which was launched by the COP27 Presidency in 2022 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. The aspirational goal of the FAST Partnership is to support agrifood systems transformation and implement concrete actions to improve the quantity and quality of climate finance contributions, support adaptation efforts and to maintain a 1.5-degree pathway while ensuring food and economic security.

    Food and Agriculture for Sustainable Transformation Initiative - FAST 2022
    Also available in:
    The aspirational goal of FAST is to implement concrete actions that would result in improving the quantity and quality of climate finance contributions to transform agriculture and food systems by 2030, to support adaptation and maintain a 1.5-degree pathway whilst supporting food and economic security. The FAST initiative will be a multi-stakeholder partnership acting as an accelerator to transform agrifood systems to deliver triple wins: for people, for climate and for nature. FAST is designed as a catalyst, building on ongoing global and regional initiatives and coalitions to drive effective actions, and avoiding duplication.

    Established at the Twenty-seventh Conference of the Parties (COP 27) held in Egypt in 2022, the Food and Agriculture for Sustainable Transformation (FAST) Initiative was launched to improve the quantity and quality of climate finance directed to the transformation of agrifood systems by 2030. After the launch of the Initiative, the COP 27 Presidency called for a FAST Partnership to be established to operationalize the Initiative’s three pillars: access to finance, knowledge and capacity development, and policy support and dialogue. This project was subsequently formulated to support the establishment of the FAST Partnership.

    Food systems transformation – Processes and pathways in the Mediterranean
    A stocktaking exercise

    As part of the global Food Systems Summit process, countries and stakeholders across the Mediterranean convened several Summit Dialogues, which allowed to reflect on the Summit’s objectives, explore the challenges faced in Mediterranean food systems, and exchange about strategic pathways to enable a sustainable transition. Building on this momentum, an analytical review of the outcomes of part of these dialogues was performed, in order to take stock of common challenges, priorities, and opportunities, and to provide support to countries and stakeholders across the Mediterranean region in further developing and implementing pathways towards sustainable food systems. The stocktake presents a set of thematic areas common to most countries in the region (“what to transform”), as well as a number of potential means of implementation (“how to transform”) that were found to be instrumental to generate transformative change, and have the potential to drive regional collaboration for accelerating the shift towards more sustainable food systems. To keep the momentum created by the Summit and the related national processes, possible next steps are proposed to leverage the transformative power of food systems, including the finalization and implementation of national pathways, the promotion of inclusive governance structures, and the development of cross-national and regional collaborations. In this setting, FAO, CIHEAM and UfM launched an initiative to engage with countries and stakeholders in the Mediterranean, providing a forum for dialogue and multi-stakeholder exchange, dedicated support for the co-creation of flagship projects and investment proposals, opportunities for regional cooperation on data sharing, science diplomacy and innovation.
