UN Food Systems Summit sessions: watch on demand

The inaugural UN Secretary-General’s Food Systems Summit took place on 23 September 2021 as part of the UN General Assembly in New York City. This historic event, livestreamed across the world, engaged more than 51,000 people from 193 countries and all walks of life – food producers, First Nations peoples, youth, civil society, Member States and countless others. Together, they explored ways to tackle global hunger, climate change and biodiversity loss, and other means of bringing about sustainable food systems transformation. The Summit garnered nearly 300 commitments from constituencies worldwide that are ready to act collectively to transform food systems on a global scale.
