Access to justice and the right to food: the way forward 2015, para. 29
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Accountability at international, regional and national levels is paramount to ensuring that the right to food and its correlative obligations are being implemented. At the domestic level, it is imperative that constitutional principles and framework laws are established as a means of providing an appropriate institutional structure to ensure the progressive realization of the right to food. In some cases, however, even where States have taken the necessary steps to develop framework laws and policies in order to promote the right to food, a lack of political will has prevented implementation and enforcement of these laws.
