The Right to Food and Nutrition Watch 2017

The Right to Food and Nutrition Watch was launched by eight CSOs ten years ago, amidst the crisis, with the goal of strengthen the monitoring and accountability for the right to food and nutrition. Ten years later, despite some progress, many of the problems that led to the crisis in the first place persist. Social movements and civil society organizations (CSOs) are keeping up their struggle to transform food systems. They demand systemic transformations for a transition to sustainable production, distribution and consumption models, based on solidarity, social, environmental and gender justice, and the guarantee of the rights to food and nutrition, water, land and other territories, as well as the rights to health, social security and a healthy environment. Peoples’ sovereignty and human rights are key to achieving this—monitoring and accountability as well.
