SFS Side Event: True Cost Accounting in Action

We facilitate meaningful, actionable dialogue amongst diverse agents of change – the scientific community, grassroots movements, policymakers, farmers, the private sector, Indigenous Peoples, and others – who are committed to food systems transformation. Together we can understand the system, co-create solutions, and find a collective path forward.

Join in person or virtually for our Side Event at the 4th Global Conference of the One Planet network’s Sustainable Food Systems Programme.

Hemispheres Room, Sheraton Hanoi Hotel

Transformation of food systems is critical to put the world back on track to meet the SDGs by 2030. But hidden costs — and undervaluation of beneficial practices — are hampering our ability to identify the solutions needed to meet the SDGs and other critical global goals.This session will feature recent case studies to demonstrate the potential for True Cost Accounting (TCA) to guide integrated policy actions to transform food systems. Participants will build practical understanding of how to use TCA as a tangible and actionable approach to enable progress toward the SDGs and guide implementation of countries’ UNFSS National Food Systems Pathways commitments. By holistically assessing the full array of impacts, dependencies, and trade-offs from food system activities, TCA can create a roadmap for leaders toward decisions with maximum value for people and the planet.Speakers:João Campari, World Wildlife FundJenn Yates, True Cost Accounting AcceleratorJose Valls Bedeau, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United NationsMatheus Zanella, Global Alliance for the Future of FoodSwati Renduchintala, National Coalition for Natural FarmingSalman Hussain, United Nations Environment Programme (by video)Ulf Jaeckel, Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety - GermanyMore information: In-person attendance at the <a href="https://www.oneplanetnetwork.org/programmes/sustainable-food-systems/4thconference" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">4th Global Conference of the One Planet network’s Sustainable Food Systems Programme</a> is by invite-only.
