Abstract

This position paper was prepared by the Food, Agriculture, Biodiversity, Land-use and Energy (FABLE) Consortium, and released during the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) Conference of Paries (COP) 16 held in Cali, Colombia. FABLE is a collaborative initiative established to support the development of globally consistent mid-century national food and land-use pathways that could inform policies towards greater sustainability. The Consortium brings together teams of researchers from 24 countries and international partners from the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN), the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK).
