International Symposium on Sustainable Food Systems for Healthy Diets and Improved Nutrition

After the Second International Conference on Nutrition (ICN2) that was co-organized by FAO and WHO, in Rome, in November 2014, participants adopted a Framework for Action for future commitments to eradicate hunger worldwide. At this symposium, participants continued dialogue, focusing on food systems—specifically the subthemes of supply side policies and measures for increasing access to healthy diets, demand side policies and measures for increasing access and empowering consumers to choose healthy diets, and measures to strengthen accountability, resilience, and equity within the food system.
