Dear Right to Food Supporters,
Please find below the contributions received to the discussion Legal developments in the progressive realization of the right to adequate food<http://www.fao.org/fsnforum/righttofood/>.
The facilitators present a working paper<http://www.fao.org/fsnforum/righttofood/sites/default/files/files/3_Legal%20development%20RTF.pdf> which explores legal advances of the right to food in constitutions, framework laws, and sectoral laws of different countries.
·         Are you aware of specific examples that illustrate an implicit constitutional of the right to food in a broader human right?
·         Are there any FSN framework laws or sectoral laws where the right to food is an important element, not included in the working paper?
