Global Inter-faith Dialogue on Food Systems
02 September from 16:00 to 18:00, East African Time, 9:00 AM Eastern Time
Access to healthy, nutritious food is a human right and yet it remains out of reach for far too many. In this Decade of Action, there is much to do and it will require new partnerships and coalitions of actors who believe we can overcome the challenges in front of us. This global dialogue will focus on building and strengthening the coalitions between faith and secular groups to achieve our common goals.
The Food Systems Summit is being organized by the Secretary General of the United Nations this fall. Members of civil society and governments from around the world are asked to contribute. This Global Inter-Faith Dialogue on September 2nd builds on a series of dialogues hosted by the Faith + Food Coalition partners in May and June of 2021. The coalition convened faith and wisdom keepers alongside those working at the intersection of food systems and policy development.
How can the role of faith and food in our lives better inform policies and prioritize implementation of regenerative practices that nourish our bodies and heal our earth instead of increasing harm? We are excited to be contributing interfaith, cross-sector dialogues to the food systems conversation. You can learn more about the Food Systems Summit here.
