Reimagining global food system resilience

The global food system has been long-standing in its current process, but now with the threats from environmental, social, and economic pressures, a transformative approach is necessary to ensure sustainability and equity. Through this transformation, there is an opportunity for businesses to derisk, diversify and differentiate themselves in tandem with bettering the food system through strategic planning. Every business should be concerned with the future of the food system, and the impact it will have on their operations and revenue.

Reimagining Global Food System Resilience explores the interconnected nature of food systems with every person and organization on the planet, discussing the challenges and resilience in food production and the collaboration needed across various sectors to enhance food security. Each sector contributes unique strengths that improve the overall resilience of food systems, and this combined approach leverages diverse expertise, creating a robust food system capable of enduring challenges and ensuring sustainability for future generations.

This report ultimately serves as a call to action for leaders across sectors to collectively work towards a resilient food future — one that prioritizes sustainability and equity while ensuring that everyone has access to nutritious food.
