The Zero Draft of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework highlights three key longterm Goals for 2050 which are especially relevant in ensuring sustainable, diverse and resilient food systems, food and nutrition security. These are draft Goals 1, 3 and 4(i). In this paper, we propose minor revisions to both Goals 3 and 4. The Zero Draft also highlights two key action-oriented Targets for 2030 particularly relevant to ensuring sustainable food systems, and food and nutrition security, namely Targets 7 and 8. We suggest minor revisions to both Targets, as well as to the associated preliminary indicators identified for both Targets. We feel such revisions are necessary to ensure that progress towards achieving the vision and goals of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework take full account of food systems, food and nutrition security and livelihoods while at the same time conserving and enhancing the use of biodiversity in agricultural and other managed ecosystems as well as in natural ecosystems.

Finally, we also suggest consideration of the additional proposed milestones and indicators not exclusively for the Goals and Targets highlighted above but also for additional Post-2020 draft 2030 Targets 12, 13, 14 and 17, and which also link to SDGs 2, 3, 4, 12, 13, 15 and 17.
Focus: Sustainable, diverse and resilient food systems, agrobiodiversity, genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge, human diets, food and nutrition security and dietary health.
