Agriculture and Food Day to Implement the Sustainable Development Goals

The International Agri-Food Network has partnered with Farming First, Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition, the International Food Policy Research Institute, the Global Agriculture & Food Security Policy, the International Council for Science, Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa and Nuffield Internal Farming Scholars to host “Agriculture and Food Day to Implement the Sustainable Development Goals”, which will be held at the Yale Club in New York City. The event will raise awareness of the critical need for investment in Goal 2 on ending hunger and its interlinkages with the other SDGs under focus during the High Level Political Forum being held at the United Nations in New York the same week.

The day will include a thematically-focused plenary session, a series of roundtable discussions on interlinkages in SDGs, and a dynamic luncheon featuring youth in agriculture.
