Climate change and biodiversity loss are harming farmers right now, resulting in unstable growing conditions and increased damage from natural disasters. Economic turmoil from conflict is contributing to soaring food prices and a devastating surge in global food insecurity.

Immediate support for more resilient food systems will help small-scale food producers respond to short term needs while building longer-term resilience to a multitude of shocks. It will enable those most at risk, especially women and girls, to transform the systems that shape their lives and the futures of their communities. Canada can- and should- take strong leadership in sparking this positive and transformational change. Together we can build a healthier, more prosperous and stable world for all of us.
