The Government of Mongolia and the United Nations jointly convened a National Dialogue on Food Systems. Bringing together key players in the food systems in Mongolia, the Dialogue facilitated an open discussion on what it takes for Mongolia to sustainably transform its food systems that will accelerate a progress towards achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Evidence, ideas, and commitments gained at the National Food Systems Dialogue in Mongolia will not only contribute to the Global Food Systems Summit to be convened by the UN Secretary-General in September 2021, but, most importantly, they will help Mongolia itself to unleash new actions and innovative solutions and strategies to rebuild the national food systems and leverage the shifts to deliver progress across all Sustainable Development Goals. Leading up to this National dialogue, the food sector experts, stakeholders, domestic and international organizations, partners have convened total of 11 dialogues involving regional, municipal, private sector, independent farmers cooperatives, youth and civil society dialogues to hear their voices and concerns of all parties in the transformation of food systems. These Food Systems Dialogues gave Mongolia an opportunity to address the current state of the food systems in the country, including challenges and opportunities and agree on actions and solutions to build a sustainable food system in the next 10 years and what can be done in the next 3-5 years.
