All eyes this last month have naturally been on COP28 news and media updates from around the world and this Climate Smart Food Edit will focus on key food commitments and important outcomes from this Climate Change Conference. Here is a quick scan of what we want the Future Food Movement Members to be aware of.
Don’t miss out on our COP28 Food Industry Debrief on Jan 18th to find out what it all means for you based on our Veriscope COP28 Special Edition, released in January. Register here (members only).
HIGH LEVEL COMMITMENTS
UAE Declaration on Sustainable Agriculture, Resilient Food Systems and Climate Action committed to accelerate action on food systems, including incorporating in NDCs. Read the full declaration here.
Joao Campari, Global Food Practice Leader, WWF welcomes the commitments made and particularly applauds the governments of Brazil, Norway, Sierra Leone, Cambodia and Rwanda who have launched the Alliance of Champions for Food Systems Transformation, and are determined to go further, faster, by taking ‘whole of government’ approaches and learning from each other. They are equally encouraged by the fact more than 200 non-state actors have committed to accelerating transformation.
