dc.descriptionGenetic diversity is fundamental to global food security. The conservation and sustainable use of genetic resources for food and agriculture is an increasing challenge, including because of growing reliance on a small number of crop varieties and livestock breeds. While in recent years increasing attention has been paid to the conservation of genetic resources, the importance of sustainably using them in order to realize their value has often been overlooked. Furthermore, legislative, administrative and policy measures that aim to protect animal, plant or human life may also limit the free exchange of genetic resources and hence their use in the achievement of sustainable food and agriculture. The Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, a permanent intergovernmental forum established in 1983, deals with policy matters related to the management of all components of biodiversity for food and agriculture. This project supported the Commission’s work on promoting regular dialogue and mobilizing international cooperation for the monitoring, conservation and sustainable use of genetic resources for food and agriculture.
