Introduction to the Law of Food Security: A Legal Framework for Global Food Justice and Sustainability
摘要
This chapter synthesizes findings from previous chapters to outline a proposed Law of Food Security, building upon the framework of the 1993 International Food Security Treaty (IFST). Recognizing the limitations of existing international legal frameworks in addressing global food insecurity, this chapter argues for a new treaty grounded in principles of human rights, environmental justice, and social equity. This proposed Law of Food Security aims to establish a binding and enforceable global regime that ensures the realization of the right to food for all, promotes sustainable food systems, and addresses the root causes of food insecurity, including poverty, inequality, and climate change. By fostering international cooperation and solidarity, the proposed treaty seeks to create a more just, equitable, and sustainable global food system for all.
