Are you attending #COP15 in Montréal? Join some of the foremost #foodsystems social scientists - on the ways in which industrial agriculture subverts #biodiversity, and how a more just and sustainable food system can be fostered 📆 9 December, 6.15pm #ForNature

At #COP15, it’s critical to remember that while #foodsystems are a major driver of #biodiversity loss, but agroecological approaches offer incredible pathways for transformation. The UNESCO Chair, FBSS and colleagues have created a policy brief with more info, now available!

🚨Food systems are the main driver of biodiversity loss. Without transforming food systems, we will be unable to reverse biodiversity loss!🚨 #COP15 must support biodiverse food systems that work with nature, and are resilient to climate change and other shocks in the system.

"We won't stop biodiversity loss without transforming food systems." New OpEd from @UNESCOChairFBSS Alison Blay-Palmer and Global Alliance for the Future of Food's Oliver Oliveros explains the role of #foodsystems and #agrobiodiversity transformation for #COP15 and the #GBF context.news/nature/opinion…

Important commentary on the role of agricultural biodiversity and #agroecology in halting and reversing #biodiversityloss. #COP15 #biodiversity #agrobiodiversity #FoodSystems Alison Blay-Palmer

To open #COP15, Secretary-General António Guterres declared that humanity has, for hundred of years “conducted a cacophony of chaos, played with instruments of destruction.” A Global Biodiversity Framework is critical for safeguarding our shared future. news.un.org/en/story/2022/…

What an incredible discussion about #agroecology as a key strategy in halting and reversing #biodiversity loss today at #COP15!

The moment Sarah Harmer called on delegates from the Canadian federal government at #COP15 to invoke the Species at Risk Act to protect the #Greenbelt from Doug Ford’s regressive environmental agenda was 🔥🔥🔥 #SARA #biodiversity (& her performance was wonderful as always)
