About Institut für Welernährung - World Food Institute e.V.

The members of the German Bundestag are addressed primarily by means of position papers and action concepts by letter and information discussions on the current state of the art and the development of food security worldwide and its consequences for Germany. The focus of the interest representation is on the risks of climate change, incorrect management, losses in soil fertility, leaching of water resources and the further risk of biodiversity. Possible ecological changes of the food system, which corresponds to the concept of Global Health, are shown. In exchange and information events contacts with the members of the Bundestag are maintained in order to convince them of the necessity of an ecological transformation of the food system.

Die Mitglieder des Deutschen Bundestages werden vor allem durch Positionspapiere und Handlungskonzepte per Anschreiben und Informationsgesprächen über den aktuellen Stand und die Entwicklung der Ernährungssicherheit weltweit und ihre Folgen für Deutschland angesprochen. Im Zentrum der Interessenvertretung stehen die Risiken des Klimawandels, falscher Bewirtschaftung, Verluste an Bodenfruchtbarkeit, Auslaugen der Wasservorräte und die weiter Gefahrdung der Artenvielfalt. Aufgezeigt werden Möglichkeiten einer ökologischen Wende des Ernährungssystems, die dem Konzept von Global Health entspricht. In Austausch- und Informationsve­ranstaltungen werden Kontakte zu der Mitgliedern des Bundestages gepflegt, um diese von der Notwendigkeit einer ökologischen Transformation des Ernährungssystems zu überzeugen.
