Building Resilience to Vunlerabilities, Shocks, and Stresse

Tuesday, July 27, 5:30am - 7:30am (EDT)

New and challenging risks are emerging in the already complex global food systems, as evidenced by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the impacts of which are skewed towards the world’s most vulnerable populations. In addition, there are many other ongoing challenges including changing climate, conflict, instability, pandemics, economic shocks etc, that require solutions to build greater resilience within the current food system, from production to consumption. To address this, Action Track 5 (AT5) – building resilience to vulnerabilities, shocks and stresses – is proposing actions to ensure that food systems can maintain functionality, recover from the effects of harmful events, and improve to a better state. These actions include a focus on “productive disruption” in the context of global crises, such as pandemics, biodiversity loss and the global climate emergency.

AT5 focuses on integrated and cross-cutting system and nexus approaches to enhance resilience and reduce vulnerability to compounded risks, structural fragility and systemic causes, on risk reduction, and on multi-risk and crisis management across and within food systems
