Part 1: New Projects on Investing in Food Systems Transformation
TIFS is involved in two new projects on investing in food systems transformation. The two projects are closely coordinated.

  • The Global Alliance for the Future of Food and TIFS are identifying a new cohort of Beacons of Hope focused on investing in food systems transformation.

Part 2: Food Systems Finance at the UN Food Systems Summit
A range of ideas and initiatives regarding food systems finance are emerging from the UN Food Systems Summit planning process. The TIFS Community took stock of some of these emerging ideas.
