Transforming Food Systems with Aquatic Foods: Access to Sustainable, Safe and Nutritious Food for All

In the lead up to the 2021 UN Food Systems Summit, the Global Action Network – Sustainable Food from the Oceans and Inland Waters for Food Security and Nutrition will arrange a series of three independent dialogues in an effort to include aquatic foods as a key food source for food security and nutrition – bridging the Decade of Action on Nutrition, the Decade of Ocean Science and the Decade of Action to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals. The events will be co-hosted by the Norwegian leadership of the Global Action Network and WorldFish.
