Principles for Responsible Investment in Agriculture and Food Systems Committee on World Food Security 41 Session.
The objective of the Principles is to promote responsible investment in agriculture and food systems that contribute to food security and nutrition, thus supporting the progressive realization of the right to adequate food in the context of national food security.
This document seeks to address the core elements of what makes investment in agriculture and food systems responsible; identify who the key stakeholders are, and their respective roles and responsibilities with respect to responsible investment in agriculture and food systems; and to serve as a framework to guide the actions of all stakeholders engaged in agriculture and food systems by defining Principles which can promote responsible investment, enhance livelihoods, and guard against and mitigate risks to food security and nutrition.
