This session was recorded during the 2023 edition of the Berlin Climate and Security Conference (BCSC). This session provided a forward-looking policy conversation on food security. Panellists assessed systemic risks and discussed steps required to shift the conversation from traditional, donor-focused debates about direct aid towards systemic agronomic approaches that work towards integrated solutions. A particular focus was the urgent expansion of financial resources and economic investment on climate- and conflict-sensitive approaches and a better, more strategic and horizontal conversation between industrialised and emerging countries.

- David Ismay, Head of Sustainability and Public Policy, Gro Intelligence
- Dhesigen Naidoo, Senior Research Associate, Institute for Security Studies
- Grazia Pacillo, Co-Lead CGIAR FOCUS Climate Security
- Susanne Fries-Gaier, Director for Humanitarian Assistance, German Federal Foreign Office
- Moderated by Michael Werz, Food security expert
