The clock is ticking to meet the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, and the case for True Cost Accounting (TCA) as a tool to transform agrifood systems to meet these goals has never been clearer.
FAO estimates that the hidden costs of global agrifood systems total at least $10 trillion annually—costs borne by people, nature, and economies. Recent case studies have demonstrated the powerful potential of TCA to guide agrifood system decision-making by illuminating solutions that maximize benefits for people and nature. Now it’s time to move TCA into the mainstream.
To take this work to the next level, we are convening leaders from around the globe to identify the barriers to scaling TCA and agree to the concrete solutions needed to mainstream adoption of this approach by 2030.
By attending, you will have the opportunity to:
Engage with policymakers shaping national and international commitments
Connect with business leaders leveraging TCA for sustainability and profitability
Explore financing models with lower long-term risks and greater social benefits
Learn from researchers leading innovative multi-capital impact assessments
Contribute to a TCA roadmap for action that will drive real-world impact
This is your opportunity to be part of a transformative movement. Secure your spot today and help shape the future of food systems!
Scaling Implementation will occur over two days at the FAO in Rome, Italy. Registration is now open. All attendees must check-in at the security building both days, allow extra travel time.
