Biodiversity & Food Systems Community Call

17 March 2025. 03:30 PM - 05:00 PM (Europe/Amsterdam). First Biodiversity & Food Systems Community Call of the  the Netherlands Food Partnership. 

Based on consultations and interactions with >70 organizations in the food systems and biodiversity space during 2024, the Netherlands Food Partnership developed a collective plan for 2025 with four main activities to further bridge biodiversity and food systems as a community.

There is a lot of energy to do more on biodiversity and food systems. Taking a systems approach surfaces biodiversity as a critical leverage point to build resilience and address multiple challenges of food systems (see figure below). Moreover, in the urgency of climate change, biodiversity management is promoted as a top agri-food system climate solution in the National Determined Contributions (NDCs)(COP29, November 2024).

You can also find more background information on the 2025 plans in two different formats (long read or slide deck) and longer term theory of change here.
