Building Consensus and Coordination on the Current Global Crisis Response Initiatives: The Potential Role of Donors and the Global Donor Platform for Rural Development.

Entirely dedicated to implementing national pathways for food systems transformation to accelerate progress towards the SDGs in times of crisis.

A high-level event to discuss how donors can collectively respond to the skyrocketing food prices and the conflict in Ukraine. The Platform's white paper on "Transforming Food Systems - Directions for Enhancing the Catalytic Role of Donors" was presented as a menu of options for donor engagement in food systems transformation.

In the framework of the FAO’s project "BUILDING RESILIENCE IN THE SAHEL REGION THROUGH JOB CREATION FOR YOUTH", funded by the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) of the Federal Republic of Germany, FAO and ODI have organized an event to showcase findings from a forthcoming report.

This independent Food Systems event is a contribution to ensure donors and their partners collaborate to realize the full leveraging potential of donor funding. The event will also launched the GDPRD stocktaking report on “Donor contributions to food systems”.
