United Nations COP28 UAE Declaration on Sustainable Agriculture, Resilient Food Systems, and Climate Action, December 2023, signed by 134 countries: “WE, HEADS OF STATE AND GOVERNMENT...We affirm that agriculture and food systems must urgently adapt and transform in order to respond to the imperatives of climate change.” This session will address the key elements of a planetary health perspective for food system transformation and introduce plans to create a platform for science-policy exchange, sharing of best practices, and solutions-oriented discussions aimed at supporting governments at the national level for progressive action-based policy on nutrition, foods, climate change, and health.
