The UN Food Systems Summit was convened by the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres as part of the Decade of Action to achieve the SDGs by 2030. It is an opportunity for the animal protection movement to ask for transformative change to the food system, to end factory farming. Reforms should be implemented that are good for the planet, people and animals. The 2021 Food systems pre-summit is being held in Rome on 26 and 28 July.
