The “Geoprogress Global Forum (GGF)” is an international conference promoted by the Geoprogress association, a non-profit organisation founded by Italian academics out of various disciplines and universities. Its goal is to contribute to the progress of humanity, namely to build a better world, and enhance peace and well-being, interdependence between nations, emancipation from starvation and other humiliating deprivations
The initiative is a valuable occasion for focusing on problems, policies and management of territory development, from local to global scale, and for debating action proposals. It is open to scientists, experts, politicians and anyone around the World who wants to contribute to overcome the above problems. Furthermore the Forum would contribute to initiate a people global network with the same world concept and intentions and therefore help to urge the international policies of their States in the same direction.
In 2016, the forum aims to discuss in detail the strategies of food security for humanity and put forward new policies and regulations, nationally and internationally, starting from a deep analysis of current food geography which involves great differences in nutrition problems in different territories and requires different solutions and overall a new relaunch of cooperation among people. 因此，这次会议的目的和结果的公布将延续关于“米兰宪章”问题的辩论,en (2015) and to involve the European and World scientific community.
