In October three important events will prepare the ground for the Summit:
The High-Level Expert Forum on How to Feed the World in 2050 will examine policy options that governments should consider adopting to ensure that the world population can be fed when it nears its peak of nearly 9.2 billion people in the middle of this century.
The Committee on World Food Security will meet to consider reforms that will enable it to play a much more effective role in the global governance of food security.
World Food Day focuses this year on how to ensure Food Security in times of crisis.
