This session will bring together three key drivers of this transition: the Mediterranean Diet and the commitments outlined in the Las Palmas Decalogue, women&#8217;s entrepreneurship through the Regional Task Force launched in Tunis, and youth training in sustainable agriculture, innovation and emerging skills. The objective is to identify concrete solutions and opportunities for cooperation to accelerate climate action in Mediterranean food systems from 2027 onwards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guiding Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mediterranean Diet and Climate Action:<\/strong> How can the Mediterranean Diet be promoted as a model for transforming food systems, combining climate change mitigation and adaptation, natural resource conservation, health, economic development and social equity?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Women, Youth and Climate Transition in Agri-food Value Chains:<\/strong> How can their role in transforming Mediterranean agri-food value chains and strengthening their resilience be enhanced, particularly through entrepreneurship, innovation and access to finance?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Research and Training:<\/strong> How can research be mobilised and skills developed to support the adaptation of Mediterranean agri-food systems to climate change and encourage the uptake of sustainable solutions?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":35,"template":"","class_list":["post-3924","event","type-event","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/3924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/35"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/3924\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3926,"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/3924\/revisions\/3926"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufmsecretariat.org\/mediterraneanpavilion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
