From January 18 to 21, the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) will host in Berlin (Germany) the annual Global Forum for Food and Agriculture (GFFA), an international conference on central issues of global agricultural and food policies.
The 2023 GFFA will address the issue “Food Systems Transformation: A Worldwide Response to Multiple Crises”. 

On Thursday, 19 January 2023 (4:00 – 5.30 pm CET), the World Farmers’ Organisation (WFO), together with Andreas Hermes Akademie (AHA), will host a side event titled: “Investing on Local Farmers’ Solutions to address Global Food System Challenges”.
The event aims to explore the challenge and the potential benefit of a strong and active role of Farmers’ Organisations in shaping more sustainable Food Systems at the national and global levels

Furthermore, for the seventh time this year, at the invitation of the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL), a delegation of young farmers – some of which selected among the WFO Member Organisations – will be engaged in the GFFA International Young Farmers’ Forum, working out on a joint declaration on this year’s GFFA topic, to be presented at the Conference of Ministers of Agriculture on 21 January 2023.
