La promesse du secteur privé pour une Faim zéro
Summary
The document outlines the framework for the Private Sector Pledge for Zero Hunger, inviting companies to make non-binding financial commitments in high-impact areas and priority countries. It details four types of financial contributions—core commercial investments, subsidized contributions, cash, and in-kind contributions—and emphasizes alignment with national priorities and evidence-based interventions. The guide specifies that investments must be new and aligned with the Ceres2030 investment domains. It also establishes a reporting mechanism linked to the World Benchmarking Alliance's Food and Agriculture Benchmark (FAB) to track progress toward Sustainable Development Goal 2.
Key insights
- Companies are invited to make financial commitments in at least one of 10 high-impact intervention areas and in at least one priority country or region, identifying partners for implementation.
- The pledge is a non-binding statement of proposed investment projects and does not create legally binding obligations for the company or its subsidiaries.
- Financial commitments are categorized into four types: core commercial investments (which should represent the largest amount), subsidized contributions (such as selling goods at below-market rates), cash contributions (via charity or ESG activities), and in-kind contributions (such as providing expertise, patents, or financial credit).
- Only future investments are eligible for the pledge; past investments cannot be counted, although existing commitments made in 2020 that extend to 2025 may be included.
- Signatories must adhere to 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 will be monitored through annual reports and the World Benchmarking Alliance's (WBA) Food and Agriculture Benchmark (FAB), with 10 FAB indicators directly mapping to the Ceres2030 investment domains.
