The event ‘Experience Exchange Cycle – School Feeding Legislation: Human Right to Adequate Food’ is an initiative of the School Meals Coalition, the Representation of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in Ecuador, and the Sustainable School Food Network (RAES), a strategy driven by the Government of Brazil, through the Brazilian Cooperation Agency (ABC) and the National Fund for Educational Development (FNDE), with the support of FAO.
This event aims to create a space for dialogue among government officials, civil society actors, and FAO representations, supported by RAES, to strengthen public school food policy, with a view to guaranteeing the Human Right to Adequate Food for children and adolescents.
The institutions seek to establish actions to act and accelerate the pace of change towards the transformation of agri-food systems and to build alliances and collective support for countries in need, in response to global priorities of increasing food insecurity, intensifying climate shocks, and instability for food and agriculture worldwide.
In this context and in response to commitments as FAO representations in Colombia, Ecuador, and El Salvador, South-South Cooperation will be promoted through experience exchanges that facilitate the implementation of actions that strengthen the school food environment from an integrated vision of sustainable schools.
Therefore, we invite your technical team to the virtual event which will be attended by delegates from civil society, representatives of the legislative sector, representatives of RAES, experts, and FAO technical team, partners from participating countries related to school food.
Date: March 1st
