The Global Alliance brought together members and partners—leaders from philanthropy, civil society, and beyond—united in driving food systems transformation at the intersections of climate, health, biodiversity, and justice. This was a closed, registration-only event.
Featuring high-level, thought-provoking plenaries and strategic working sessions, the convening explored bold, collective action at this pivotal geopolitical moment and tackled urgent challenges and opportunities in food systems transformation.
Through its convenings, the Global Alliance fosters connections among partners inside and outside philanthropy with diverse change-making approaches, creating a unique space for strategic dialogue. This gathering identified opportunities for collaboration, align strategies, and tackle critical challenges together.
