2050: Global Challenges & Demands

With a projected global population of 9.7 billion by 2050, the strain on Earth's resources will be unprecedented, requiring the equivalent of 1.7 planets to fulfill humanity's needs.

In this context, trade emerges as a critical pillar for food security.

The implementation of fair and transparent trade policies is vital to ensure access to diverse food sources, stabilize market dynamics, and guarantee food availability.

However, building a resilient food system involves more than just increasing production.

It's about enhancing the quality, nutrition, and affordability of food, particularly as demand is anticipated to surge by over 70% by 2050.

These efforts in addressing food insecurity are imperative, not only as a response to immediate needs but as a strategic pathway towards a sustainable future for our increasingly urbanized global population.
