Minister of Foreign Affairs Arzu Rana Deuba has participated in the high level ministerial special eventorganized during the ongoing 44th Session of the General Conference of Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) at its headquarters in Rome, Italy. 

Addressing conference Rana called on the global community to act together towards building food systems that nourish our people and protect our future, leaving no one behind.

 There is a need to build a future where no child suffers from stunting, no mother is left without nourishment, and no community is denied the right to a healthy life, the foreign minister said. While underscoring the need for international partnerships, predictable financing, and accessible technology in securing safe and nutritional food for all people in the world, particularly for those living in the LDCs, LLDCs and SIDs, the Foreign Minister called for scaled-up investment in transforming our food systems, means to adapt to climate change, and the resources to help build the resilience of these group of countries.
