SPS8 has inclusivity at its heart

SPS8 will foster transparent, equitable, and respectful discourse and is committed to ensuring fair and inclusive representation. This core commitment will be applied across our four principles of sustainable phosphorus management.

Sustainable phosphorus management inclusivity principles

and how SPS8 fulfils them

  • The voices of all people and communities are fairly represented in the design of solutions to deliver sustainable phosphorus management, including those from marginalized groups.

    SPS8 is fulfilling this by ensuring inclusive representation at the summit, offering support for participants from low-income countries and early-career researchers to promote equitable participation.

  • The benefits of sustainable phosphorus management reach vulnerable communities and provide benefits beyond the scale of intervention.

    The outputs of SPS8 will be disseminated widely, from local to global communities, ensuring that they benefit vulnerable stakeholders the most. Materials will be provided considering accessibility criteria, including in different languages.

  • Sustainable phosphorus management ensures that its benefits reach vulnerable communities while extending positive impacts beyond the immediate scale of intervention.

    The outputs of SPS8 will be widely shared, spanning local to global communities, with a focus on maximizing benefits for vulnerable stakeholders. Materials will be tailored to meet accessibility standards, including providing them in multiple languages.

  • Sustainable phosphorus management is a global responsibility essential for advancing food production sustainability and resilience while minimizing losses and damages, both nationally and internationally.

    SPS8 is championing this effort by uniting local and international participants, along with Expert Working Groups, to embrace a collective responsibility for producing food sustainably while minimizing environmental harm.
