How can you transform your food habits and the global food system?

Believe it or not, you have the power to change the global food system through your own food habits.  How? Check out the Hivos-supported video from the One Planet Network below for 10 tips on how to support a more sustainable food system while also living a healthier life at the same time.

The universality of food makes it a great conversation starter for Sustainable Consumption and Production – we are all part of the food system! Following the 2018 UN High Level Political Forum, the One Planet network adopted ‘food systems’ as a cross-cutting theme for the year. Produced with the aim of helping audiences formulate personal actions, ‘10 tips to support Sustainable Food Systems’ is the first video in a series. A tool for all of One Planet’s programmes, this video communicates a key message that is in line with the SFS Programme’s vision. It also builds upon the SFS Programme’s global conference’s objectives: Your relationship with food can transform our food systems!

This video is brought to you by the One Planet network together with the European Commission and Government of Sweden in collaboration with the One Planet network’s Sustainable Food System Programme (co-led by The Swiss Confederation, Federal Office for Agriculture (FOAG), Hivos, the Republic of South Africa, and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF)).
