BRUSSELS, 30 April . - (ANA) - How can cooperation between the public and private sectors contribute to promoting a sustainable, regional approach for agriculture and food security in the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean?
 
To look at these and related issues, the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) are organizing a high-level forum in Barcelona on 5-6 May that will bring together policymakers, financing institutions and CEOs from leading agribusiness companies, to deepen relationships between the public and private sector and develop initiatives to increase agricultural investment in the region.
 
The forum will address challenging policy and investments dilemmas – from self-sufficiency to trade liberalization; from traditional value chains to innovative food quality paradigms. -(ANA)
