Dear Colleagues,
The online consultation Towards the Development of the Programme on Sustainable Food Systems<http://www.fao.org/fsnforum/forum/discussions/sustainable-food-systems> has attracted many new comments over the last few days and we are happy to share them with you below.
FAO and UNEP invite you to share your opinions and inputs on the programme on sustainable food systems they are jointly developing.
The two Agencies also invite you to take part in a stocktaking exercise of initiatives related to sustainable food systems and are collecting expressions of interest of entities to participate in the programme and become member of its Committee.
Please see the summaries of the comments below. The complete background, the draft concept note and all comments received so far are available on our discussion page. <http://www.fao.org/fsnforum/forum/discussions/sustainable-food-systems>
We look forward to keep receiving your comments.
Your FSN Forum Team
