The role of cities on Impact Investing for food system
The World Economic Forum together with the Food Action Alliance convened the international community for an action-oriented discussion centred on leading flagship initiatives that hold the potential to realize regional and country-led actions for food systems. From global food systems thinking to local impact, the meeting focused on the global demand for healthy and nutritious food in ways that are equitable, efficient and environmentally sustainable together with solutions that are customized to local needs and realities. During the breakout discussion, Food Trails organized a discussion involving partners and cities sharing the efforts, approaches and solutions on the impact investing opportunities in the framework of the Food Trails Investors Living Lab. In these videos, you can see a first round of speakers that present the work of Food Trails partners on impact investing opportunities to be connected to urban food systems in committed municipalities and local authorities; then a cities’ roundtable to explore the field of the food system more attractive for impact financing solutions in Birmingham, Copenhagen, Groningen and Milan.
