المنتدى العالمي المعني بالأمن الغذائي والتغذية

One important issue is how can the following two important targets related to Nutrition and Food Systems be reached, namely to increase the benefits of a more nutritive food, and reduce the food safety risks. Maximizing the primary production is important for fighting malnutrition, but it is also crucial to improve not only the production methods but also the food processing and food preservation through sustainable technologies. The improvement of the shelf life of processed foods, would ensure their commercialization and distribution, allowing the food to reach underdeveloped areas where the resources are scarce.  This approach needs also the support of policies focused on the improvement of traditional processing, leading to more nutritious and safe food for more people, and the direct involvement of international world level organizations to attain this goal.
