Pinggu Consensus

一、全球粮食和营养安全是未来人类生存和发展的共同基础。到2050年，全球人口将达到100亿，为人们提供营养和可持续的食物是世界的首要任务。然而，全球农业食物系统面临饥饿、营养不良、气候变化、资源环境退化、地缘政治冲突等多重挑战。因此，亟需推进农业食物系统转型，为实现全球可持续发展目标做出积极贡献。在当前动荡和危机的复杂国际背景下，以外交和远见为基础的全球科学伙伴关系和合作比以往任何时候都更能助力塑造安全、和平和可持续的未来。

I.Global food and nutrition security is the foundation for future human survival and development. The world population will reach 10 billion by 2050, and feeding them nutritiously and sustainably is a paramount priority. However, agrifood systems face multiple challenges such as hunger and malnutrition, climate change, resource and environmental degradation, and geopolitical conflicts. Therefore, there is an urgency to transform food systems to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In the current international context of fragmentation and polycrisis, global scientific partnerships and cooperation can more than ever help shape the future and contribute to security, peace and sustainability through diplomacy and foresight.  

二、科学、技术、政策、制度和商业模式的创新是农食系统转型的重要驱动力。这些创新对于提升食物供给能力，改善食物贸易和市场，提高对气候变化的韧性，催化农食产业变革，提供营养、安全和健康的膳食，并助力社会民生保障有重要推动作用，促进农食系统向着营养健康、绿色低碳、高质高效、更加包容、更加有韧性转型。基于对创新的影响效应进行监测与评估（包括副作用和外部性），应在伦理和监管框架下，营造激励环境促进负责任的创新。创新成果应当惠及所有人，特别是小农户、低收入者和脆弱群体。

II.Innovations in science, technologies, policies, institutions and business models are the fundamental driving force for the transformation of agrifood systems. They are essential in improving food supply, strengthening food trade and market, enhancing climate resilience, catalyzing agrifood systems reformation, providing nutritious, safe, and healthy diets, and enhancing people's livelihood. They promote the transformation of agrifood systems towards being more nutritious, low-carbon, efficient, inclusive, and resilient. Based on impact monitoring and learning (including side effects and externalities), responsible innovations that consider ethical implications and regulatory frameworks should be promoted by shaping an incentivizing environment. Innovations should benefit all, especially smallholder farmers, low-income people,and vulnerable groups.

三、开展前沿交叉、多学科、跨部门的全球农业科技合作是实现农业食物系统转型的关键途径。与会代表倡议建立农业食物系统转型科学家联盟，以共享信息、数据、研究和技术，为农业食物系统的可持续转型提供重要智力和技术支撑。政府需要采取支持和赋能行动，将公共支持优先投入科技研发，以提升创新能力，更好应对气候和营养挑战。

III.Cutting-edge, multi-disciplinary, and cross-sectoral global cooperation on agricultural science and technologies is crucial to transforming agrifood systems. The conference participants propose establishing an alliance of scientists for agrifood systems transformation to share information, data, research, and technologies and provide essential intellectual and technical support to agrifood systems transformation towards sustainable development. Supportive and enabling government action are needed, and public support should be prioritized in R&D to improve innovation efforts to tackle climate and nutrition challenges.

四、高等院校在农业食物系统转型中发挥科技研发和人才培养的重要作用。与会的大学校长和主管建议拓展现有的双边或者区域高校合作网络和平台，建立世界高校合作网络，积极在农业科研和人才培育等领域扩大交流合作。

IV.Universities are for scientific research and talent development to transform agrifood systems. The university presidents and leaders participating in the conference recommend to establish a world university cooperation network to actively collaborate in agricultural scientific research and talent development by expanding current bilateral and regional networks and platforms.

五、作为创新的重要驱动者之一，企业家和私营部门的参与对于农业食物系统转型至关重要。大会各个相关利益主体强调包容性企业网络的关键作用，并呼吁企业共同努力，加快商业行动，更好地将食物安全、营养与健康以及低碳和有益于自然的可持续发展融入企业战略和业务运营。鼓励企业在社会责任承担上发挥更加主动的作用，与社会各界分享创新，也为社会公共产品供给做出贡献, 同时确保创新的可应用性、可及性、可负担性，并促进其采纳和推广。

V.Engagement of entrepreneurs and the private sector is essential for agrifood systems transformation as they are major drivers of innovations. The conference stakeholders emphasize the critical role of inclusive entrepreneur networks and call for enterprises to work together to accelerate business actions and integrate food security, nutrition and health, and low-carbon and nature-positive sustainable development into enterprise strategies and business operations. Enterprises are encouraged to play a more active role in social responsibilities, sharing responsible innovations with all sectors of society and contributing to producing public goods, ensuring the innovations are available, affordable, and accessible to those who need them, and promoting adoption and diffusion.

六、青年一代肩负着保障未来全球粮食和营养安全的责任使命。大会提议以WAFI青年论坛为中心，进一步增强全球青年的交流合作，给予青年人特别是发展中国家的青年人发表观点、参与高层对话和采取实践行动的平台和机会。

VI.The young generation shoulders the responsibility and mission of ensuring future global food and nutrition security. The conference participants propose to use the WAFI Youth Forum as a focal point to enhance exchanges and cooperation among global youth and provide them, especially in developing countries, with platforms and networks to express their voices, engage in high-level discourse, and take practical actions.

参会各方一致认为，世界农业科技创新大会(WAFI)是全球农业科学、技术、政策和商业模式创新的重要交流、合作和议事平台。该平台应在促进地方、区域和全球等各个层面的创新中发挥重要作用。通过链接包括中国(平谷)农业中关村在内的全球农业技术交流与创新平台，形成合作网络，进一步拓展在前沿创新和产学研结合领域的合作。与会代表呼吁各界共同努力，不断链接全球智慧、汇聚全球力量、加强国际间交流合作，在保护健康和环境、减缓气候变化的同时，更好地保障全球粮食与营养安全。

Participants unanimously affirm that the WAFI is an important global exchange, cooperation， and discussion platform for innovations in agricultural science, technologies, policies and business models. This platform should help to facilitate innovations at local, national and global levels. Collaboration on cutting-edge innovations and industry-university-research integration should be further expanded through the support to networking Agricultural Technology Exchange and Innovation Hubs, such as the Zhongguancun Agrifood Valley, for example. Participants call for joint efforts to link global wisdom, gather global momentum, and strengthen international exchanges and cooperation, to contribute to global food and nutrition security while protecting health and the environment and mitigating the climate change.

最后，与会代表建议，世界农业科技创新大会（WAFI）应定期在北京市平谷区举行，以确保持续影响力，并从地方、区域和全球各个层面推进农业食物系统转型。

Conference participants finally suggest WAFI should be held in Pinggu regularly to ensure a momentum, contributing to agrifood systems transformation at the local, regional and global levels.
