Demand for protein is on the rise as the world’s population is projected to reach 10 billion by 2050 (1). 1 billion people around the world already do not consume enough protein (2) and our food system today accounts for 30% of global GHG emissions (3). Without innovation\, it will be impossible to provide enough protein to meet demand while meeting the targets set out by the Paris Climate Agreement and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). \nBuilding on Swiss Food & Nutrition Valley’s State of Play 2.0 event in December 2024\, this online forum will provide both Swiss and international experts with an opportunity to continue to explore the trends and opportunities in this space and how we can scale the most promising approaches. \nWho?\nThe session will be led by Christina Senn-Jakobsen\, CEO of SFNV\, a passionate advocate for food system sustainability.

Despite the looming deadline\, in global terms we are far from reaching that aim. One in 11 people worldwide went hungry in 2023\, with the number rising to 1 in 5 in Africa. Globally\, we have seen an alarming rise since the last decade. With the global population forecast to reach 8.5 billion by the 2030 deadline and then keep rising\, the issue is set to become all the more pressing. \nGoing beyond hunger\, the amount of food available isn’t the only thing at stake. Ensuring everyone can eat a nutritionally complete diet is crucial too. In 2030\, projections indicate that 582 million people will be chronically undernourished\, causing a wide range of serious health problems. As a result\, in 2023\, almost 29% of the world’s population was classed as being moderately or severely food insecure. And as the drivers causing food & nutrition insecurity are intensifying and becoming more frequent\, charting a path to security is becoming ever more pressing. \nThis session will explore the role that processed food can play in feeding the world. \nWho?\nThe session will be led by Katarzyna (Kash) Winek\, Head of Innovation Scaling & Global Engagement\, a passionate advocate for food system sustainability. She’ll be joined by three expert speakers from the Valley’s ecosystem. We’ll share more details here as speakers are confirmed. \nWould you like to join us?\nJust RSVP below to save your seat in the virtual room and then drop in on the day using the details below. \n\n  \n\nCan’t make it this time?  Tell us about the topics you’re interested in and we’ll be in touch as soon as the events are scheduled in!

Regenerative approaches can improve water and air quality\, enhance ecosystem biodiversity\, produce more nutrient-dense food\, and store carbon to address climate change\, while maintaining or improving economic sustainability. \nDespite offering clear benefits for both farmers and the environment in the longer term\, adoption remains relatively slow. What more can we do to help farmers mitigate the initial risks and costs of adopting regenerative practices today\, to continue to scale these approaches in future? \nWho?\nThe session will be led by the Valley’s CEO\, Christina Senn-Jakobsen\, a passionate advocate for food system sustainability. She’ll be joined by three expert speakers from the Valley’s ecosystem. \n\nAlex von Hettlingen\, Founder & Managing Director\, Regenerativ Schweiz\nDr Anita Frehner\, Research Scientist\, Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FIBL)\nPiera Waibel\, Senior Advisor Regenerative Agriculture & Supply Switzerland for the Earthworm Foundation\nPhilippe Birker\, COO & Co-Founder Climate Farmers\n\nWould you like to join us?Just RSVP using the form below to save your seat in the virtual room and then drop into the Zoom meeting on the day using the details below.  \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nCan’t make it this time?
