SUMMARY:Executive Training on Sustainable Investments in Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Increased international investment in agriculture can accelerate sustainable development and help to meet growing food security needs at domestic\, regional\, and global levels. Yet\, if not structured equitably or regulated carefully\, investments can also lead to social and environmental degradation. These risks have only heightened as investments in land for agriculture have become increasingly attractive to foreign investors and host countries alike. \nIn seeking to promote responsible international investment in agriculture and encourage sustainable development\, countries face both challenges and opportunities. These include: developing robust legal and fiscal frameworks; negotiating equitable deals with investors; leveraging investments for greater sustainable development outcomes; and mitigating environmental impacts while protecting human rights. \nTo help stakeholders in addressing these issues\, the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI) has developed an annual executive training on international investments in agriculture.
