22 January 20216. The global food system is under mounting strain. Feeding a growing population amid climate disruption, resource scarcity and nutritional inequality demands transformation. As innovations in farming, ingredients and supply chain move from theory to practice, the challenge is to scale solutions that are both people and planet positive.
The forum explored how food systems around the world are evolving and what it will take to transition them toward sustainability, resilience and inclusion. Participants discussed ways to build systems that expand consumer choice, support and sustain farmers, and restore environmental health — all while ensuring greater equity and access in food production and distribution.
