WEBINAR: Pathways for the future of sustainable food systems in the Mediterranean

21 June 2021. This 2nd SFS-MED Independent Food Systems Summit Dialogue was convened by
CIHEAM, FAO, UfMS, OPN-SFSP and PRIMA Foundation.

Building on the findings of the 1st SFS-MED Dialogue held on 27 April, this webinar fostered inclusive discussions to identify common pathways for sustainable food systems (SFS) in the Mediterranean, supporting their transformation and ultimately advancing progress on the 2030 Agenda in the region.

The objectives of the 2nd SFS-MED Dialogue were:

• Catalysing joint action to improve the sustainability, understanding and resilience of Mediterranean food systems by bridging Sustainable Consumption And Production (SCP), using the Mediterranean diet as a lever of change, among others.
• Engaging a wide network of sustainable food systems stakeholders within the broader framework of green, blue and circular economy, where the SFS-MED Platform can play a key role in strengthening regional cooperation at the service of Mediterranean youth and women to accelerate regional implementation of the 2030 Agenda.

The outcomes of this 2nd Dialogue will feed into the Summit preparatory process and into the programme of the 3rd Mediterranean Diet World Conference on sustainable food systems in the Mediterranean.
