Sommet des Nations unies sur les systèmes alimentaires : imposture !

Friends of the Earth International is boycotting the 2021 UN Food Systems Summit (UNFSS), describing it as a tool for corporations and philanthropic entities like the World Economic Forum and the Gates Foundation to control food governance. The organization and over 500 partner groups are organizing an alternative summit to advocate for agroecology, food sovereignty, and binding regulations on corporate power, opposing the UNFSS's focus on commercial technological solutions and 'Nature Positive Food' narratives.

• The 2021 UN Food Systems Summit is characterized as a mechanism for industrialized nations, corporations, and philanthropic capitalists, specifically the World Economic Forum and the Gates Foundation, to dominate food governance through ineffective solutions.
• The UNFSS is criticized for prioritizing commercial technological solutions, such as biotechnology and genomic modification, over social and environmental justice regulations.
• The 'Nature Positive Food' narratives promoted by the UNFSS are viewed as attempts to replace agroecology, allowing corporations to continue destructive activities and engage in land grabbing through 'nature-based solutions'.
• The UNFSS is described as an opaque and undemocratic process that excludes the knowledge and participation of small-scale producers and communities suffering from food insecurity and human rights violations.
• A true transformation of food systems requires binding regulations on corporate power, the cessation of pesticide and dangerous technology use, and the redirection of public funds toward agroecology.
