Access to justice and the right to food: the way forward 2015, para. 4
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- In addition to legally binding treaties, the right to food has also been enunciated in various international standards, the most significant of which are the Voluntary Guidelines to Support the Progressive Realization of the Right to Adequate Food in the Context of National Food Security (Right to Food Guidelines). The Right to Food Guidelines were developed as a practical tool for States to assist them in implementing their obligations at the domestic level under article 11 of the Covenant. The year 2014 marked the tenth anniversary of the guidelines and provided an opportunity to evaluate the impact thereof on national implementation. The present report will highlight some examples of good practice in that regard.
