20e anniversaire des Directives sur le droit à l'alimentation - Appel à contributions sur la concrétisation du droit de l'homme à une alimentation adéquate
L'année 2024 est celle du 20e anniversaire de l'adoption des Directives volontaires à l'appui de la concrétisation progressive du droit à une alimentation adéquate dans le contexte de la sécurité alimentaire nationale.
Le droit à l'alimentation est un droit juridiquement contraignant, garanti par le Pacte international relatif aux droits économiques, sociaux et culturels. Ce droit est réalisé lorsque toute personne a physiquement et économiquement accès à tout moment à une nourriture suffisante ou aux moyens de se la procurer, conformément à l'Observation générale n° 12 du Comité des droits économiques, sociaux et culturels (CDESC).
Les Directives sur le droit à l'alimentation apportent des conseils pratiques aux États sur la manière de concrétiser le droit à une alimentation adéquate moyennant l'élaboration de stratégies, de programmes, de politiques et de législations. Celles-ci ont été approuvées par le Comité de la sécurité alimentaire mondiale (CSA) et adoptées par le Conseil de la FAO en novembre 2004, après deux années de négociations inter-gouvernementales et de participation multipartite.
Les gouvernements ont l'obligation juridique de garantir le droit à l'alimentation, dont chacun est en droit de jouir en tant que droit universel, sans aucune discrimination. En outre, tous les individus et collectifs, y compris les autorités gouvernementales, les législateurs, les communautés locales, les organisations non gouvernementales, les universitaires, les organisations de consommateurs, les groupes de jeunes, les peuples autochtones, les petits exploitants, les organisations de femmes, les organisations de la société civile ainsi que le secteur privé constituent des acteurs cruciaux dans la concrétisation du droit à une alimentation adéquate.
Les Directives ont anticipé l'urgence des défis mondiaux les plus pressants à relever actuellement pour parvenir à un développement durable, notamment les conflits, les inégalités, les maladies, le changement climatique et la perte de la biodiversité. Dans un monde complexe où les défis ne cessent de se multiplier et d'évoluer, les lignes directrices restent plus que jamais d'actualité. Elles nous rappellent l'importance de la coopération et de la collaboration internationales au service du bien public collectif que constitue l'éradication de la faim, de la malnutrition sous toutes ses formes, de la pauvreté et de l'inégalité. Leur pleine mise en œuvre contribue aux efforts que nous déployons en faveur du Programme de développement durable à l'horizon 2030 et de ses Objectifs de développement durable (ODD), eux-mêmes fondés sur les droits de l'homme.
Les cinq dernières années ont été particulièrement difficiles en raison de la pandémie de COVID-19, de la gravité croissante de la faim et de la malnutrition sous toutes ses formes, du creusement des inégalités et de la crise du coût de la vie. Les gouvernements et d'autres acteurs ont mis en œuvre des réponses innovantes dans le monde entier. 20 ans plus tard, il est temps de faire le point sur les progrès accomplis et se pencher sur les principaux enseignements à tirer.
Exprimez-vous là où cela importe!
Dans la perspective du 20e anniversaire des Directives sur le droit à l'alimentation, les résultats de cet appel contribueront à documenter les efforts déployés pour concrétiser le droit à une alimentation adéquate au niveau local, national, régional ou mondial, tout en offrant aux pays et à leur population la possibilité de dresser un état des lieux en la matière.
L'équipe de la FAO chargée du droit à l'alimentation et le Comité de la sécurité alimentaire mondiale (CSA) invitent les parties prenantes à:
1. |
Partagez vos expériences et vos bonnes pratiques en termes de concrétisation du droit à l'alimentation pour tous, à tout moment. |
2. |

Submission for the 20th Anniversary of the Guidelines on the Right to Food
Dear concern.
In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Right to Food
Guidelines, I am writing to provide my input and share valuable
information regarding the realization of the Human Right to Sufficient
Food. As an ardent advocate for food security and sustainable
agriculture, I believe that every person should have access to secure,
nutritious, and culturally appropriate food.
I have attentively perused and considered the United Nations'
guidelines regarding the right to sustenance, and I would like to
contribute my beekeeping industry-specific experiences and best
practices. Although I lack personal experience in this field, I have
compiled pertinent information and best practices that can assist in
the realization of the right to sustenance via beekeeping.
Through pollination and honey production, the beekeeping industry
plays a crucial role in food production, making it an essential aspect
of assuring food security and promoting biodiversity. We can
collectively improve the comprehension and application of the right to
sustenance if we share our experiences and best practices.
In my proposal, I have outlined key elements such as sustainable
beekeeping practices, capacity building, and knowledge sharing, access
to resources and markets, conservation of bee habitats, research and
innovation, policy support and advocacy, and the significance of
collaboration and partnerships within the beekeeping industry.
We can contribute to the realization of the Human Right to Adequate
Food, I believe, by incorporating these experiences and best practices
into our collective efforts. The beekeeping industry has enormous
potential to not only provide sustenance but also support beekeepers'
livelihoods and promote environmental preservation.
I expect that my submission will be considered and will contribute to
the larger discussions and initiatives surrounding the Right to Food
Guidelines' 20th anniversary. I welcome any additional conversations
or opportunities for collaboration that may result from this
submission.
Please find enclosed my detailed submission, which provides an
exhaustive overview of the beekeeping industry's experiences and best
practices in relation to the realization of the right to sustenance.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if any additional information or
documents are required.
Thank you for your consideration of this issue. I offer my fondest
regards for the success of the 20th-anniversary celebration of the
Right to Food Guidelines.
Yours faithfully,
Mr. Jaber Amin.

RESPONSE TO UN FAO Right to Food Guidelines Consultation
We are happy to have the opportunity to celebrate and comment on the 20th anniversary of implementing the FAO/UK Right to Food Guidelines in 2024, in advance of the 2030 reviews of the SDGs and the 2030 Agenda. We are academic research scientists and PhD students from multiple disciplines working with the University of Leicester Institute for Environmental Futures, We have extensive interdisciplinary research projects, many involving PhD students, with a global reach, as well as University teaching roles.
(i) Experiences and good practices
The FAO Consultation was excellent as it allowed involvement of stakeholders globally in development and monitoring of the RtFG, encouraging discussions, and generating data or case studies about best-practice. With respect to 'lessons learned', our contributions would be in monitoring and investigations of approaches.
(ii) Gaps, constraints and challenges
We feel there are three gaps and challenges that should be addressed, regarding Sustainability, Robustness, and Education:
A. Sustainability
The Right to Food documentation has little in relationship to sustainability, which must be considered at levels of the individual, region, nation, continent, and globe. Current farming practices are generally able to produce enough food (with obvious challenges of availability, distribution and to an extent type of food) to meet the demand of the population. However, current practices are, firstly, using more resources from the planet than are being replaced; and, secondly, human activity is changing, and in many cases destroying, the environment producing food. Hence, 'business as usual' is not certain to continue production of sufficient food without substantial changes. Production of food should not impede the viability of areas in the future, whether with respect to water, soils, or crop protection and nutrition (eg Hunke et al., 2015; Lal & Stewart, 1990), while the increasing temperature variability and extreme weather events predicted will need improved genetics and potentially changes in areas and agronomic practices. Detailed monitoring and research at national levels, in all countries, will be required to recognize and avoid unsustainable practices and adapt food production systems to changing climates and environments.
B. Robustness and resilience
The International Covenant on Rights obliges each party to take steps "to the maximum of its available resources" to achieve, among others, the Right to Food. Food supply has to ensure resilience as one of its cornerstones, and a system exploited to its maximum cannot provide that resilience. The scope of the resilience is twofold, and is linked to sustainability. Firstly, resources needed for food production must continue to be available. Secondly, the resilience of supply chains and the associated infrastructure including storage and long-distance transport to balance crop failures and crops from different regions, must be improved. Among other factors, 13% of food production worldwide is lost due to insufficient refrigeration (63% in developing countries; Wu et al., 2022); as well as cold storage, improvements in harvesting and transport through to sales predictions can reduce waste. Improvements need to consider too impacts on energy use, greenhouse gas emission and social structures. Changes in production patterns, availability of food items, and social structures (urbanization and aging of populations) all require adjustments to farms and distribution processes. Supply chain disruptions and the need for enhanced traceability and quality assurance are also significant concerns.
These constraints and challenges show the tight links between food, health and environmental security, three of the main categories of human security threats (UNDP, United Nations Development Programme, 1994).
C. Education
Education about food and nutrition at the under-16 level has at least partially failed globally. Many populations, whether from less or more developed countries, show health and well-being issues resulting from a poor diet, while there are other challenges related to food safety, storage and waste. All impact on delivery of the Right to Food at the individual level. Nationally in the UK, we ask how 12 years of mandatory state education allows an 'obesity crisis', with a population ill-equipped to understand food and eating habits? Globally, how is the sufficient food that farms produce - at substantial environmental cost - not available deliver the aims of a 'Right to Food'?
Beyond the under-16 level education, University-level, tertiary, education has a major part to play in equipping people with the skills required to both develop and put into practice policies that enable the Right to Food to be achieved. Furthermore, through the research programmes associated with the training activities in most Universities, both globally novel, and regional applications, of the new approaches to achieve the RtFG. We therefore welcome the increasing quality of Universities globally, and increasing enrolment of students. We hope the teaching and research will underpin the development and implementation of the Right to Food.
(iii) Lessons learned and suggestions
Our research and teaching have academic value but are not specific examples of implementation of the Right to Food guidelines.
(iv) Next steps: use of Right to Food Guidelines
At a local University level, many of us will plan to incorporate teaching (undergraduate, MSc and within PhD programmes) about the Right to Food Guidelines, complementing the deep consideration of the UN SDGs already in many courses.

On behalf of Claire Ogley, Head of Campaigns, Policy & Research at The Vegan Society:
"The Human Right to a secure supply of affordable, suitable food, which meets our cultural, religious and philosophical beliefs, has repeatedly been articulated. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and many other treaties and laws clearly set out the right to suitable food. This includes vegans, people holding and practicing the philosophical belief of veganism.
"We have set out in great detail how these Human Rights specifically apply to vegans, through our International Rights Network of legal experts, here: https://www.vegansociety.com/get-involved/international-rights-network/…
"Moreover, many experts have repeatedly presented evidence that plant-based biosphere and food system management – as well as allowing for the restoration and recovery of habitats for free-living animals – is a vital element in ensuring food security for everyone. As just one high level example, "Food in the Anthropocene: the EAT-Lancet Commission on healthy diets from sustainable food systems.” Willett W et al. 2019 https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(18)3178… (Summaries in numerous languages also here: https://eatforum.org/eat-lancet-commission/eat-lancet-commission-summar…) sets out why and how a global transformation of the food system is urgently needed.
"As The Vegan Society set out in our COP27 briefing (https://www.vegansociety.com/get-involved/our-work-policy-makers/cop27-…) the Global North including the G7 countries have the greatest responsibility for the current global biodiversity, climate and hunger crises. We set out what this might look like for a typical G7 country, the UK, in our Grow Green series of reports and research: https://www.vegansociety.com/take-action/campaigns/grow-green
"Therefore, the Global North has a global debt that can only be made good by the Global North leading a plant-based food systems transformation. Only then can the Human Right to Food be realised for all, including all cultural and belief-based needs, at all times."
