Young Professionals for Agricultural Development - YPARD

🙌 Come say hi to the YPARD delegation if you’re at hashtag
in Belem! 🌎

Our delegation includes members from different YPARD Chapters and regions who are policy specialists, partnership coordinators, agripreneurs, community leaders, and more. 🌿 ✨ Along with supporting the Action On Food network across the conference to ensure that food systems take centre stage during negotiations, YPARD members will be taking part in several key sessions during the COP.

👉Take a look at our engagements below, and read the full YPARD Policy Position for COP30 developed by our Policy Working Group in the link in our bio!

From October 14–17, YPARD joins global youth, farmers, and innovators at the World Food Forum (WFF) in Rome 🇮🇹 to shape the future of sustainable and inclusive agrifood systems.

Representing YPARD are Edoardo Corriere and Karen Salazar, who will amplify youth voices, share innovative solutions, and advocate for climate-resilient, youth-led food systems 🌱💪

Together, we’re redefining the future, empowering young people and women to lead the transformation toward a greener, fairer, and more sustainable world 🌾🌎

🎙️ Celebrating youth is incomplete without discussing food safety for our current and upcoming generations. 🌾 🌍 Be a part of this important conversation!

Unsafe food = unhealthy youth, lost opportunities, and broken promises on the SDGs. We’re here to address that! From local farms to global policies, young people are leading the charge for safer food systems that protect our health, reduce waste, and secure our future. 🌱🌍

As part of the International Youth Day celebrations, we are organizing the session titled 'No Safe Future without Safe Food: Youth at the Centre of Food Safety'.

We'll cover:
🚀 Youth innovators sharing real solutions
🔍 Food safety’s impact on SDGs 2, 3 & 12
📣 A united call for youth in decision-making

🗓️ 19th August, 2025
