To this end a panel of advisors was formed and the UN announced it was likely to hold a Summit on Sustainable Development in 2015. Human Rights, Equality and Sustainability will be the core of this new Development Agenda, in which SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) will replace the MDGs.

The UN secretariat has already set in motion a group of initiatives around that will help establish this new development agenda. For example, two months ago a task force composed of elements of 50 departments and agencies of the United Nations produced a report on what the UN considers indispensable for the new Development Agenda.

The report proposes three fundamental principles (human rights, equality and sustainability) and four central dimensions (inclusive social development, inclusive economic development, peace and security) that are structural to the post-2015 agenda.

Agriculture and food access are transversal issues to the entire report and the future SDGs, and sustainable growth of family and small scale farming are considered both an objective and an essential tool to fulfill the agenda that begins to draw.
