The Future of the Global Food System

On September 23, the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization is hosting the first UN Food Systems Summit , with a goal of “setting the stage for global food systems transformation.” In this episode, Ruth Richardson , the executive director of the Global Alliance for the Future of Food , talks to host Lisa Held about the significance of the Summit, some of the controversies surrounding it, and what she thinks global food systems transformation should look like—from a shift toward agro-ecological practices in farming to calculating the true costs of food.
