JULY 11
Creating an enabling policy environment: towards innovative elements in family farming policies and programs
JULY 13
Towards innovative policies for climate resilience (pillar 6) and equity within family farming (pillars 2 and 3)
July 4 2023.- The World Rural Forum (WRF), in collaboration with FAO, is organizing a series of webinars to share experiences and reflect on how to achieve innovations in public policies through the recognition and consideration of the different dimensions of family farming, enabling its action to be amplified, strengthen interconnection with other policies (such as food, nutrition, health, education, gender, youth, and the environment, etc.) in a joint response to global challenges.
Family farming has a unique potential to promote transformative changes in the way food is produced, processed and distributed, enabling us to address the impacts of the interconnected crises facing the food systems (notably the climate, economic and energy crises).
The First Global Forum of the United Nations Decade of Family Farming 2029-2028 (UNDFF) held in September 2022 emphasized that Family farmers need to be at the center of efforts to transform agri-food systems.
This implies integrated and innovative approaches that specifically consider -within different public policies and programs- economic, environmental, social and cultural dimensions of family farming and how the enhancement of these dimension can contribute to different challenges.
It is in this context that the WRF is organising the following webinars:
