Less than a year to go before COP26, you can join Nourish Scotland, IPES-Food and partners for the launch of the Glasgow Food and Climate Declaration.
The “Glasgow Declaration” is a commitment by subnational governments to tackle the climate emergency through integrated food policies, and a call on national governments to act!
Register now for the launch webinar on 14 December, which will mark the opening for signatories and the beginning of the road to Glasgow.
The webinar will have simultaneous interpretation in English (EN), French (FR) and Spanish (ES).
