Through sustainability assurance programs, Canada’s producers are demonstrating their commitment to further lowering their environmental footprint and making strong socio-economic contributions.
• We must break down silos and build partnerships, as demonstrated by our Living Labs
Program, which brings together farmers, scientists, and industry to accelerate the
development and adoption of sustainable practices and technologies.
• We have much to learn from partnerships with Indigenous peoples, who have been
safeguarding biodiversity and who have proven the importance of preserving traditional
food systems.
• Empowering women is a prerequisite for food system transformation, and will result in systems that are more sustainable, equitable and efficient.
• Canada has been pleased to work with its partners to maintain the focus on gender equality, and amplify the voices of Indigenous peoples in the Summit process.
• The Sustainable Development Goals will not be achieved without an inclusive approach.
• Canada recognizes the importance of rules-based trade, science-based international
standards and risk-based approaches to improving food security.
• We are pleased to see the strong global commitment to scaling proven methods to achieve Zero Hunger.
• As we move to implementation, the spirit of collaboration should continue.
• Every nation contributes to the development of positive long-term changes.
