Global food security is increasingly under threat as a changing climate makes it more difficult for farmers to meet the needs of our population, while COVID-19 has tested our ability to provide for the most vulnerable and stymie a growing hunger crisis. As we move into 2021, the Global Forum for Food and Agriculture (GFFA) will host their thirteenth session to explore the challenge:
How to Feed the World in Times of Pandemics and Climate Change?
HealthforAnimals, AnimalhealthEurope and BfT, the German Animal Health industry association, will host an expert panel discussion at the GFFA to discuss how improving the health of livestock can strengthen future food systems and help deliver more sustainable production.

- Anne Mottet – Livestock Development Officer, FAO
- Shirley Tarawali – Assistant DG, International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) and Chair of Global Agenda for Sustainable Livestock
