Food Systems Pathways in Yemen
The pathways of Yemen’s food systems are the culmination of the government’s commitment to the 2021 United Nations Food Systems Summit. They are also the result of a combination of research and policy review, as well as national technical dialogues in Yemen, which took place during the period from November 2021 and July 2022. These dialogues focus on the most vital sectors of agriculture, fisheries, industry, education, social protection, water, environment and health.
While the outcomes of the food systems dialogues in Yemen draw the features of the near future in the country, they also establish strategic interventions that will improve the level of food security and nutrition, as well as ensure Food Self-Sufficiency (FSS), which represents an important step towards enhancing security, stability and prosperity in the country.
These outcomes take the form of national task-forces, which are clustered into national purposeful groups each of which assumes the task of making a change towards the provision of healthy and sustainable food systems. These national groups also represent the nucleus of global and regional communication and partnerships with similar and related pathways. In addition, these national groups are the result of an urgent need at the national level
