The right to adequate food (Art. 11) 1999, para. 20
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- While only States are parties to the Covenant and are thus ultimately accountable for compliance with it, all members of society individuals, families, local communities, nongovernmental organizations, civil society organizations, as well as the private business sector have responsibilities in the realization of the right to adequate food. The State should provide an environment that facilitates implementation of these responsibilities. The private business sector - national and transnational - should pursue its activities within the framework of a code of conduct conducive to respect of the right to adequate food, agreed upon jointly with the Government and civil society.
