Considering the current discussions on the urgency for food systems transformation and climate change mitigation, in view of the UN global events Food Systems Summit and COP26 and their outcomes, Idec proposes to articulate partners and deepen discussions at national and regional levels, influencing the political agenda. The proposal's objectives are: 1) To translate and disseminate the four Health and Climate Network (HCN) briefings in order to expand dialogue with strategic partners in Latin America involved in COP26; 2) To promote discussions to deepen connections on current food systems and their outcomes on the people's and planetary health in Brazil and Latin America. Proposed activities are: a) To translate to Portuguese and Spanish and disseminate the four briefings in Idec's own media and explore other media and share them among strategic partners in Latin America; b) To present the HCN Briefing 1 on Food Systems in strategic meetings, to discuss its recommendations in Brazil; c) To fund investigative journalism from a well-recognized journalism agency to further deepen the discussions raised in Briefing 1, producing in-depth materials about food systems and climate agenda; d) To develop podcast episodes on topics related to Briefing 1 targeting key stakeholders on the climate agenda.
