A Reflection on the Food We Consume in a Changing World

EXPO Milano 2015 - Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life will advocate the access to safe, sufficient, and balanced diet for all as a basic human right.

It will deal with the wide range of issues associated with human nutrition, both in terms of the quality of food we consume and the supply of food for everyone.

“Science for Food Safety, Security and Quality”
“Innovation in the Agro Food Supply Chain”
“Technology for Agriculture and Biodiversity”
“Dietary Education”
“Solidarity and Cooperation on Food”

Indeed, in the 21st century context of a rapidly growing population and a fast deteriorating environment that threaten the very source of life for humanity, ensuring food safety and food security represents a top global concern that requires a long-term vision and sustainable solutions by all nations of the world. The goal of the Expo will be to promote best practices relevant to the theme and to spur an international consensus in the face of one of the most pressing issues of our time.
