(a)
Teniendo en cuenta que la seguridad alimentaria es una meta a alcanzar
según los compromisos asumidos por los Estados en la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo
Sostenible (ODS 2), y por los motivos expresados ut supra, se sugiere reemplazar “food
sovereignty” por “food security”.
(b)
Con respecto a la afirmación “sustainable and equitable food systems”, se
agradecerá conocer el alcance de “equitable food systems”. Por otra parte, se manifiesta
conformidad con la afirmación “sustainable food systems”, que es conforme con la meta
2.4 de la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible.

Would like to retain “individually and collectively” and suggested moving it to the first line
of paragraph 2, after “rural areas”. She strongly recommended to maintain food sovereignty
in the text.
