As global food security concerns continue to mount, a variety of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other entities look for dialogue and discussion that will lead to concrete and timely policy solutions. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations convened a World Summit on Food Security in November 2009, and this website offers documents from that meeting, along with information about related events and news stories. In the "List of documents" area, visitors can make their way through agendas, timetables, and the crucial "Roundtable Concept Notes" series. This series includes thought-provoking pieces on financial crises and food security and rural development. Visitors can also learn about forthcoming forums and read transcripts from past forums as well.
