Media Engagement in the UN Food Systems Summit Process
UN Food Systems Summit Independent Dialogue
28 JULY 2021| 11:00 – 13:00GMT+2
With the United Nations Food Systems Summit (UNFSS) quickly approaching, the world’s food system will be a central theme in every news and media outlet. The world over, stakeholders are identifying and defining their roles, and actively participating to influence UNFSS outcomes in their favour.
What is the role of the media fraternity in the UNFSS? What is in it for communications specialists from both state and private media houses, news outlets, and social media platforms? How can the media fraternity help to improve general understanding and promote broader participation in this critical process?
To answer these and many other burning questions, join us as we unpack the role of Communications Specialists and the Media in the United Nations Food Systems Summit and related processes. The upcoming webinar will discuss and define the critical role that you as a Communications Specialist play in unpacking the UNFSS and related processes.
Please feel free to send this invitation to colleagues and contacts within the communications and media fraternity whom you feel may benefit from attending this dialogue.

Media helping to shape future of
food systems
“The only way to change Africa’s future is by making sustainable food systems a priority,” says Prof. Lindiwe Sibanda ahead of her keynote address at the historic first independent dialogue on media engagement in the United Nations Food Systems Summit.
‘Radical steps needed to transform
food systems’
In the fight against food inequality, the role of the media cannot be
understated. This was the underlying sentiment powering an
independent dialogue held in the run-up to the UN Food Systems
Summit.
