📢🌾🌍 New report out now – “Shaping food security narratives: A strategic tool for climate action”! Who gets to define #FoodSecurity? And how can we shape narratives to support climate mitigation and adaptation, in ways that give agency to farmers and local communities? At a time when food security is headline news due to the impacts of war in the Middle East, how we talk about food security – and the values, assumptions and interests implicit in our discourse – has significant implications for food systems transformation. In this new report commissioned by ClimateWorks Foundation, we explore the different narratives shaping #FoodSecurity, revealing key debates, tensions and global trends that currently dominate policy and funding decisions around the world. We show which narratives have the greatest potential to drive real #ClimateAction – and offer practical guidance for funders, NGOs, researchers and policymakers on how to strategically shape them.
