FAO and the Government of Brazil brought together representatives from 10 countries to discuss key regional actions to strengthen food markets, expand cooperation among cities, and promote public policies that integrate food security and climate.
Representatives from governments, technical agencies and strategic partners from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, and Peru advanced in defining lines of action aimed at linking the transformation of urban food systems with the challenges of producing and ensuring access to food in the context of climate change.
Brazil’s Ambassador to Colombia, Paulo Estivallet, reaffirmed Brazil’s commitment to regional cooperation and recalled that the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty seeks to accelerate international efforts to eradicate hunger and reduce inequalities.
