QUNO launches an online consultation on food security

The Quaker United Nations Office (QUNO) has launched an online consultation on food security.

‘Examining the linkages between trade and food security: What is your experience?’ invites contributors to share their knowledge and expertise. It aims to put small-scale farmers back at the centre of the food security debate. Contributors are asked about the effectiveness of a global market-based approach to food security. It also seeks to find ways of reconciling food security measures with trade rules.

The consultation is in conjunction with two FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) departments: the Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition and the Trade and Markets Division.

The discussion is open for contributions until early February 2015.

QUNO urges Friends to respond to the discussion at http://bit.ly/FoodSecurityForum
