Spanish White Pork Sector: Partnerships for the Goals

Continuing with INTERPORC's policy of being increasingly present in international forums (which includes the organization of two Independent Dialogues for the UN Food Systems Summit), its presence at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) was carried out by signing the AmbicionCOP platform's Manifesto where governments, companies and the entire society are requested to face greater mobilization and climate action in order to achieve a carbon-neutral economy as soon as possible, appealing to co-responsibility.\

In the case of the Food Innovation and Sustainability Group (GIS), this work forum aims to become a reference in this matter in Spain with the fundamental objective of supporting those companies or institutions that are committed to applied innovation in the agri-food sector and above all to transfer it to society. INTERPORC has collaborated through the publication of the “Practical Guide for Compliance with the SDGs in Food SMEs”.

INTERPORC is a member of the European Rural Pact whose objective is to provide a common framework to cooperate and participate at community, national, regional and local levels to make rural areas of the EU stronger, connected, resilient and more prosperous spaces. This membership implies support for the 10 objectives identified by the European Commission as relevant for the future of rural areas.

As a member of the Spanish UN Global Compact, INTERPORC has participated in awareness-raising, dissemination and training tasks, and more specifically those related to the Agri-Food Working Group. Within this group, thanks to the AlimentaODS project, the aim is to generate awareness and commitment in the Spanish agribusiness sector about the need to promote sustainable food systems to advance the SDGs, to guarantee the right to food, and to reinforce the commitment of companies.

All these actions demonstrate that only through the promotion of alliances in the public, public-private and civil society spheres, it is possible to jointly contribute to the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
