FoodDay 2026: Building Sustainable Food Systems Within Planetary Boundaries

How can we reshape the way we produce, distribute, and consume food to ensure health, equity, and environmental resilience? Today, food production drives five out of six breaches of planetary boundaries. A transformation of the food system is fundamental to solving crises related to climate, biodiversity, and health. Join us for FoodDay 2026, where we invite the entire value chain to discuss how we can build sustainable and resilient food systems for the future.

Participation is free of charge.
