Are you a youth advocate in Nepal who wishes to actively engage, participate, and contribute in the process leading to the UN Food Systems Summit 2021?
Join us for a Food Systems Summit 2021 Dialogue hosted by MGCY Youth Focus Group for UN Food Systems Summit, YFEED Foundation, Power Shift Nepal, and Real Food Systems. The event will gather food system advocates from different organizations to create momentum ahead of the UN Food Systems Summit happening later this year.
The goal of this event is to encourage Nepalese youth to be aware and engage in the UN Food Systems Dialogue. We encourage youth to share their experiences about their local food systems, identify the challenges being faced, and design innovative solutions that will shape the future of food systems.

Youth from the African region and diaspora have a chance to make their voices heard at the African Food Systems Dialogue organized by the African regional facilitators, hosted by Hired Consult and co-hosted by MGCY.
Join this event, where stakeholders and participants will gather constructive feedback from youth on major questions such as:
“How can food system transformation contribute to greater dietary diversity, food safety, and the affordability of healthy diets?”
“How do we foster innovation and strengthen partnerships in making food systems safer?
Mark your calendars to ensure your voice is part of this important Dialogue process! If you have questions about this Dialogue, please contact esther.wanza@unmgcy.org or john@hiredconsult.com.
*The Food Systems Summit Dialogues are an approach for enabling systematic, inclusive opportunities for stakeholder to be engaged in food systems. The approach enables participants to contribute to the Summit by building on efforts already underway, working together on pathways that lead to sustainable food systems, and setting out intentions and commitments in the run up to the Summit.
