Thank you, David. Â Thank you really for your leadership and the commitment to this process. Â It has been very exciting, and I am very, very pleased to have the opportunity to humbly open the meeting and to listen to the leadership thatâs in this room, and online, across all constituencies.
I am especially grateful for the preparations for this Summit because I do see decision makers and ministers here in this room, and everywhere, that are building on and re-thinking the way in which food functions in their societies. You can see that we are focusing, in particular, on the relationships between food and people, and between food and the planet.
