Current food systems cannot sustain our planet and its people in the long term. A safe and just transition is urgently needed to ensure a healthy and thriving environment for future generations.. We have collaborated with EY-Parthenon on a series of white papers that explore the opportunities, key enablers and critical success factors for a preferred future by 2040, and outline global focus areas and collective actions to accelerate the transition.
