Eco-event Calendar

What will truly revolutionise our global food systems to feed 10 billion people in 2050? Whilst this question has been asked for over a decade, the current global food system, supply chains, consumption patterns and agricultural practices have not adapted anywhere near enough to support 10 billion people in a sustainable, low-carbon way. 

World Food Day 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of FAO in an exceptional moment as countries around the world deal with the widespread effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic. It’s time to look into the future we need to build together. 

To feed 10 billion people by 2050 will require a mixture of political will, innovative technologies, and a fundamental rethink of how we finance a more sustainable and equitable global food and agricultural system. This extended session is designed to celebrate and promote groundbreaking innovations, finance and policy interventions that already exist and must be adopted and scaled today.
