Just Transition and Adaptation in The Food System: Fact Sheets
The Adaptation Network co-hosted the hybrid event, ‘National Policy Dialogue on a Just Transition and Adaptation in the Food System’ in Johannesburg from 20-22 September 2023. The Dialogue gathered individuals and organisations from civil society, smallholder farmers, agricultural workers, farming communities, informal traders, academics, and governments, and facilitated an interactive exchange. The hosting organisations also developed six fact sheets in five of the official South African languages to facilitate the exchange of information.
