In this panel discussion, a diversity of partners will explore the issues, strategies, and innovations of domestic and internationally focused organizations, to highlight common themes, approaches, and persistent challenges. Through touching on issues such as local commitments, biodiversity, modes of finance, gender empowerment, and international collaboration, this event will show why agriculture and food security are critical to discussions and decision-making on climate change. The perspectives of small-scale farmers, cooperatives, and commercial enterprises will be shared in this compelling discussion, which links policy to practice, and will include insight from the Government of Canada.
