La promesse du secteur privé pour une Faim zéro

This guide provides a framework for companies and investment funds to make financial commitments to the 'Private Sector Pledge for Zero Hunger'. It outlines how businesses can align their investments with scientific evidence to help eradicate hunger by 2030, detailing the types of eligible investments, priority regions, and the governance structure for implementing these non-binding pledges.

• The Private Sector Pledge for Zero Hunger requires companies to make financial commitments in at least one of 10 high-impact intervention areas and within at least one priority country or region. These commitments must be based on new evidence and align with the goal to "éradiquer la faim et de nourrir l’avenir d’ici 2030".
• Eligible financial commitments are categorized into four types: core commercial investments (which should constitute the largest amount), subsidized contributions (such as selling goods at below-market rates), cash contributions (via ESG or charitable activities), and in-kind contributions (such as assigning employees or providing access to intellectual property and patents).
• The pledge is a non-binding declaration of proposed investment projects and does not create legally binding obligations upon signature. A formal, binding partnership agreement is only activated after a separate written agreement is signed, subject to due diligence.
• Investments must be future-oriented; past investments cannot be counted toward the pledge. However, existing commitments made in 2020 that extend to 2025 can be included if they were planned at the time of signing.
• Companies signing the pledge must adhere to specific international standards, including the Committee on World Food Security's Principles for Responsible Investment in Agriculture and Food Systems (CSA-RAI) and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.
• Progress and accountability are monitored through annual progress reports and the World Benchmarking Alliance's (WBA) Food and Agriculture Benchmark (FAB). Ten specific FAB indicators are mapped to the 10 high-impact investment areas identified by Ceres2030 to track corporate performance.
• The initiative is coordinated under the UNFSS action track and is supported by several partners, including the FAO, GAIN, Grow Africa, Grow Asia, IISD, WFP, WBA, and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). The initiative is scheduled to conclude in 2030.
