As discussions on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals kick off today at the UN High-Level Political Forum, the Global Network for the Right to Food and Nutrition launches a human rights-based monitoring resource.
Parallel to the UN High-Level Political Forum (HLPF), the human rights-based resource is being released to foster monitoring and accountability exercises that ensure, protect and promote people’s sovereignty, somewhat disregarded in the 2030 Development Agenda. Currently in its initial stage of development, People’s Monitoring for the Right to Food and Nutrition aims to present a critical view and the diverse dimensions, triggers and consequences of hunger and malnutrition.
