UKFG

The UKFG has worked with other bodies in Europe - including CONCORD (the European alliance of development NGOs) - and elsewhere in pursuit of common goals such as engaging with the Committee on World Food Security (CFS). The UKFG was instrumental in the renewal process of the CFS in 2009/10 and the setting up of the Indigenous Peoples and Civil Society Mechanism (CSM) for interfacing with the CFS in 2010 and subsequently supporting the CSM in its various processes... The UKFG represented the British Overseas NGOs for Development (BOND) on global food and farming issues and in this role has participated in many EU meetings and fora... The UK Food Group worked to strengthen advocacy in the UK, the EU, the UN and other international bodies for a global food system that would achieve its vision.
