The Global Donor Platform for Rural Development has just launched its new Strategic Plan for the 2021-2025 period.
The plan situates the work of the Platform across the domains of food systems, food and nutrition security, agriculture and rural livelihoods. It recognizes the Platform’s particular focus and orientation towards SDG 2 and the intersection with other SDGs.
Strengthening Coordination Towards SDG2: Pathways For Food Systems Transformation.
Held in November 2020, the selected theme for the 2020 Annual General Assembly (AGA), “Pathways for Food Systems Transformation” opened a discussion on what processes are needed at local, national, regional and global levels to underpin food systems transformation, and the role that donors can play in catalyzing and supporting such processes. The outcomes from the AGA sessions are being used to develop a Platform preparatory contribution for the Food Systems Summit, which will assess the ways donors currently support and invest in food systems and identify options for strengthening or changing these in the context of the wider agenda for food systems transformation.
The Platform provides a discussion forum for programmatic and institutional innovations and donor priorities in line with the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development.
