Opening: Voices of the Land
At the Action on Food Hub, frontline voices are central to everything we do. Achieving just food systems means championing the communities that are most impacted by the climate crisis, including Indigenous Peoples, local communities, youth and farmers. At the opening of the pavilion, we’ll hear directly from these voices of the land.

Hidden middle from production to consumption
The ‘hidden middle’ bridges the gap from farm to fork, from farmer to consumer. By rethinking the way we produce, distribute and consume food, we can envision a system that nourishes the global community without exceeding planetary boundaries.

Livestock & Rural Livelihoods
Livestock and animal proteins have historically been central to human diets, but it’s time we reevaluate existing approaches. As the animal and environmental impacts of modern factory farming become apparent, it’s time to look towards less intensive and more regenerative practices.

Soil & Biodiversity
Soil is the unsung hero of ecosystems across the globe, with the power to enrich the food chain and provide a barrier against intense weather. The Action on Food Hub at COP30 is hosting vital conversations on the importance of soil health and how we can weave solutions into wider climate action.

Just Transition & Societal Shift
A just transition means making changes to food systems that benefit everyone - particularly those who have historically been marginalised. In the past, conversations on food have excluded frontline actors, meaning that the benefits and impacts of the agrifood system have been unfairly distributed. Now is the time to prioritise equality and justice in our food systems.

GLF Investment Symposium: Sustainable Finance & Investments
Channeling climate finance to food systems and unlocking barriers for local communities are key priorities. Currently, only 7% of global climate finance is directed to agrifood systems, but to achieve climate goals, total global finance for food and land use needs to see an increase to around $1.1 trillion annually by 2030 - GLF will explore how we could achieve this.

Food Systems Day: From Farm to Policy
Food Systems Day at COP30 should be leveraged to integrate food and agriculture solutions into national climate action plans. The Action on Food Hub will be bringing this issue to the forefront - there is no pathway to keeping global warming below 1.5C without the agrifood sector.
