Yet, achieving the human right to food and nutrition also requires the active commitment of states. Germany has long played a prominent role in championing the right to food, both rhetorically and through concrete support for international mechanisms like the UN Committee on World Food Security (CFS). Under the theme “From Rights to Action”, German officials and international participants reaffirmed the centrality of the right to food in shaping national and global policy. Discussions focused on five key themes: access to land, gender equality, the bioeconomy, agricultural value chains, and ensuring the right to food in the Global North. But the daily struggle for food justice remains rooted in people’s territories, where the fight for human rights continues to be both urgent and essential.
