GLF Bonn Digital
Conference

One of the not to be missed events is the GLF Bonn Digital Conference. Human health and livelihoods depend on planetary health. So, how can we feed a growing global population without eating the planet? The 2020 theme of GLF is “Food and Livelihoods.” Today, food systems are one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions, a main driver of deforestation and the greatest threat to biodiversity. We need to transform the way we produce food and, as the COVID-19 pandemic is showing, we need to start now. Below you can find GLF Bonn Digital Conference agenda.
