The FAO Liaison Office in Geneva, in collaboration with its Right to Food Team and Office of Emergencies and Resilience (OER), recently hosted a hybrid briefing on the "Right to Food and Localization."

The session underscored that the right to adequate food—safe, nutritious, and culturally appropriate—is a fundamental human right. Realizing this demands resilient, inclusive, and locally driven agrifood systems supported by accountable governance, rather than solely emergency aid.

Discussions focused on localization: empowering national and local actors with resources and authority. This approach promotes dignity, equity, and ensures the right to food for all.
