Hello,
I would like to propose:
1.- The consideration of Food and Nutrition Security as a Global Public Good and its implications for global good governance
See latest SCN News #40: 87-91. What if food is considered a common good? The essential narrative for the food and nutrition transition
http://www.unscn.org/files/Publications/SCN_News/SCNNEWS40_final_standard_res.pdf
2.- The alternative food networks (urban movements and indigenous traditions): moral economy, sharing food schemes, peer to peer food production, community-based agriculture, food gleaning, collective ownership and management of arable land.
3.- Universal Food Coverage to guarantee that everybody gets a minimum amount everyday (this idea is being developed in Ecuador at present, FLOK Initiative).
best regards
