Towards the Development of the Programme on Sustainable Food Systems (SFSP)
Dear all,
Pursuant to the enhanced Memorandum of Understanding signed on September 24th 2014 between the Director-General of FAO and the Executive Director of UNEP, FAO and UNEP are jointly developing a programme on sustainable food systems under the 10-Year Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns (10YFP), based on the experience and work under the FAO-UNEP Sustainable Food Systems Programme.
This follows a decision by the Agri-food Taskforce on Sustainable Consumption and Production of the FAO-UNEP Sustainable Food Systems Programme, the approval of the 10YFP Board of a preliminary proposal presented by FAO and UNEP, and the recommendation of the Committee on Agriculture of FAO at its 24th session.
As part of this process, a public consultation is being organized in order to:
- take stock of information on initiatives of relevance for the development of the Programme, particularly to avoid duplication and facilitate synergies and partnerships [please use this form]
- collect comments and input on a short draft concept note, for the further development of the Programme [please use this form]
- collect potential expressions of interest of entities to participate in the the Programme as Lead/Co-leads and/or as member of the Multi-stakeholder Advisory Committee (MAC) and/or work area coordinators and/or simple partners [please use this form].
The results of the consultation will be used to further develop the concept note. A Multi-stakeholder Advisory Committee (MAC) will be constituted, with Lead/Co-leads.
The Lead/Co-leads, together with the MAC will finalize the concept note and develop a full programme proposal, which will be submitted to the 10YFP Secretariat for formal validation of the 10YFP Board. More details on the process are available on the Web site of the 10YFP (www.unep.org/10yfp).
We thank you in advance for your interest, support and efforts, and for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us.
We look forward to your contributions.

FAO Deputy Director-General

Development of Programme for Nutrition & Food Systems which are Sustainable in the Long Term
FAO and UNEP’s public consultation on the proposed programme on sustainable food systems under the 10-Year Framework to be successful needs to focus on long term, low cost low risk agro ecology systems, putting the rural poor producer communities to work gainfully, thus accessing own requirements of nutritious food and cash, at little or no cost, if we are to reduce the effects of climate change, hunger, malnutrition, poverty, suicides whilst increasing net income/ purchasing power and improving livelihoods of smallholders, pastoralists, tenants, tribals, etc., all of them will also contribute to feeding their increasing populations, economic development, growth and in the long term.
The programme also needs to ensure that the producer communities are assisted and facilitated to set up their producer orgs/ company (PC) but staffed by professionals (general practitioners [GPs]/ MBAs in agriculture) to take over all risks and responsibilities other than on farm activities, link to a case study: www.navajyoti.org, set up one of the poorest districts of Orissa, India, where thousands of its members have become sustainable in the long term over the last 5 years. Attached are docs providing evidence, etc.
Thank you for inviting contributions to United Nations Sustainable Food Systems Programme of the 10-year framework of programs on sustainable consumption and production (10YFP).
Please find enclosed from our BERAS of the Caribbean completed forms:

Dear Colleagues,
As promised, here is the second form for organizational participants. I am a member of the Board of Directors of the Vancouver Women's Health Collective, which is interested in participating as per the attached. Though I am also Senior Fellow at the University of British Columbia (Institute of Asian Research), I am not authorized to speak on behalf of UBC so cannot fill out a form for the university. Having said that, participants in the forum will be interested in knowing that UBC has a Centre for Sustainable Food Systems (run out of the Faculty of Land and Food Systems - LFS) as well as an experimental farm. There are scholars working on sustainable food-systems in a variety of institutes, departments etc beyond LFS including Community and Regional Planning, Geography, Social Work, Health Sciences and even humanities departments.
I did not fill out the form documenting projects because there there are just too many to mention. Canada alone has sustainable food systems organisations and projects from coast to coast to coast operating in both English and French (our two official languages) as well as others focused on more specific communities (indigenous, minority ethnic etc.). A good contact is the Canadian Association of Food Studies.
I have worked extensively on sustainable food-systems and look forward to hearing about the outcome of these discussions. Thanks for allowing me to participate.
