Bogota, Colombia 14 June 2025 - 19 June 2025
The Global Land Forum 2025, organized by the International Land Coalition, will be held from 14 to 19 June in Bogota, Colombia. With the participation of ϲͼ.
Some 10% of people worldwide (in other words more than 800 million people) suffer from chronic hunger and 30% from food insecurity (2.3 billion people). Sustainable Development Goal 2 (Zero Hunger) will not be achieved by 2030. With this in mind, how can we rethink our agricultural models and consumption habits in order to feed the world without destroying the environment, while cutting the cost of access to food?
The transition will be a complex one. Food production is the main culprit in terms of biodiversity loss, accounts for almost a third of global greenhouse gas emissions, pollutes natural resources, and does not provide decent jobs for producers. At the same time, it is itself a victim of global warming: flooding, water stress, late frosts, and so on.
Tackling these agricultural and food challenges means involving everyone: businesses, researchers, policymakers and donors.
To highlight solutions found in the field and thanks to science, ϲͼ and Le Monde are organizing a conference: "How can we feed 10 billion people without destroying the planet?".
Facilitator: Isabelle Hennebelle, journalist at the Le Monde newspaper
