Some 50 countries from Europe and Central Asia will join the 33rd Session of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ Regional Conference for Europe (ERC33) to discuss pressing issues of food security and agrifood systems transformation. The meeting comes as at a time of protracted crises, as the region is coping with the challenges brought about by COVID-19. Meanwhile, the conflict in Ukraine is affecting production and trade of staple agrifood products and threatening the lives and livelihoods of millions in Europe and Central Asia and beyond.

Participating countries will discuss matters affecting world food security and agriculture, including a surge in global food prices, and  share approaches for transforming agrifood systems in Europe and Central Asia and ensuring sustainable food value chains.

The Regional Conference is FAO’s highest governing body in Europe and Central Asia. The four-day conference, hosted this year by the Government of Poland from 10 to 13 May, will be held as a hybrid event, both at the Doubletree Hilton hotel in Lodz and online with participants following the webcast.

Agriculture ministers and other government officials from across Europe and Central Asia will be joined at the conference by civil society groups, private sector representatives, development partners and observers.
