UN Food Systems Summit 2021 Amid Climate Crisis: More Neoliberal Policies & Billionaire Involvement?

We speak to Dr. Agnes Kalibata, the UN Secretary General’s Special Envoy for the 2021 Food Systems summit. She discusses how our current food systems are creating biodiversity loss and contributing to climate change, the effort to upgrade Africa’s farming capacity and the aim to increase Africa’s farming yields, the involvement and promotion of the private sector in building agricultural capacity for developing nations, the involvement of billionaires such as Bill Gates and giant multinational corporations in the monopolisation of the world’s food supply and much more!
