Food security is an important foundation for achieving global security and sustainable development.Currently,multiple risks are overlapping,weakening the international community's ability to withstand and respond to the food crisis.From the perspective of global food security governance,the driving forces behind the global food crisis involve three dimensions:materials,institutions and policies.Slowdowns in global economic growth,frequent geopolitical conflicts and exacerbated climate change have weakened the material foundation of the global food system.Fragmentation of mechanisms has reduced the governance effectiveness of international institutions.Trade protectionism and the expansion of neoliberal agricultural and food policies have led many countries to neglect the necessary international cooperation and common interests in the face of the food crisis.Faced with the current global food crisis,China,as an important participant in global food security governance,needs to accelerate various actions related to food security under the Global Development Initiative.It should mobilize all parties to increase financial,technological and other material investments,expedite the transformation of the global food security governance system,enhance the central roles of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations,the International Fund for Agricultural Development and the World Food Programme,advocate for inclusive agricultural and food policies,as well as shape a mutually beneficial atmosphere for international cooperation on food security.
