Agrinatura) as well as farmers' and private sector organizations. Among the activities carried
out in the first phase being completed (2013-2019), the Platform has carried out assessments
in the agricultural sector considering various risks (e.g. climatic, agronomic, political,
financial), with a methodology capable of assisting the countries in identifying risks
objectively and therefore allowing the development of policies and the orientation of
investments based on scientific analyzes. PARM also proposed solutions-tools to manage the
risks identified in support of investment policies in agriculture in the eight countries of
intervention (Cape Verde, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Liberia, Niger, Senegal, Uganda and
Zambia).
Italy also promotes the Mediterranean and other traditional diets as a pivot of a model of
agricultural development and sustainable nutrition that can contribute to the implementation
of the 2030 Agenda. A series of international meetings on the topic, aimed also at protecting
and valuing the productions arising from the sustainable agri-food systems, are carried out in
collaboration with FAO (“Mediterranean Diet's Principles for Agenda 2030”) while
supporting the creation of a wider Alliance for the promotion of the principles of the
Mediterranean diet and other traditional healthy diets.

The Committee on World Food Security (CFS)
Italy is traditionally deeply committed to CFS that we value as a unique space where all
relevant stakeholders for food security and nutrition can raise their voices (Italy has been
Vice President of the Committee and EU representative in the CFS Bureau). Italy always
supported to the maximum extent the participation of the Special Rapporteur to CFS’ work
and especially to the Plenary with a role of high level. Italy is following closely the work
stream on the elaboration of the voluntary guidelines on food systems and nutrition, a key
document for the realisation of the right to food.
