For two days, the first Global Parliamentary Summit against Hunger and Malnutrition gathered more than 200 parliamentarians from 80 countries to advance the international political will to achieve Zero Hunger.
The participants highlighted the crucial role that legislative bodies play in this challenge, identified and shared political experiences, legislation and good practices. Parliamentarians repeatedly drew attention to agroecology as a critical element in the path towards Zero Hunger.
The Summit was a joint initiative of the Spanish Parliament, the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation, FAO and the Latin America and the Caribbean Parliamentary Front Against Hunger.
