Core message

Objectives 

  • Highlight how we can promote climate action through our agrifood systems practices, in a world that is multiethnic and multicultural
  • Bring together the plant-based movement and the livestock representatives for more sustainable food production
  • Highlight the areas that still need to be further addressed and discussed (hopefully in the next events at the pavilion) and suggest ways to achieve this, together
