Poster's Comment

(Editorial comment) With air and water, food is a need that must be met for us to survive. The recent global forum on Food Security is available for viewing, listening and searching of the transcripts by researchers and the general public. Although this is moving target, Food Security may be the pacing item in any correction nature has in store for us as we approach the top of the curve of population overshoot. Will we be able to flatten the curve as hoped or manage the downward slope "in a socially just way"? That will depend on the unfolding of Food Security.

From the Atlantic Council

“About the conference

With world leaders convening in Bali for the G20 summit, the Atlantic Council Global Food Security Forum, running from November 12 – 13, 2022 at the Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua Resort, took a collaborative, cross-sector approach to addressing the global food security challenges of today and envisioning the more resilient food systems and supply chains of tomorrow.

By convening international, regional, and local food security leaders, including government officials, corporate and business leaders, experts, and advocates, this forum offered a prime opportunity for participants to help inform public policies, shape business practices, and frame media discourse amid G20 momentum.
Global food security sits at the nexus of the world’s most pressing challenges.
