Professor Phoebe Koundouri spoke at the International Event “Food for Peace”, a side event to the United Nations General Assembly and Climate Week NYC, co-hosted by Isabel Arens (Germany) and Abdul Khurram (Pakistan).
In her address, Professor Koundouri emphasized the critical role of systemic modeling in policy design and the urgent need to transform global food systems through integrated solutions that respect planetary boundaries while promoting resilience, equity, and human well-being.
She also highlighted the work of AE4RIA – Alliance of Excellence for Research and Innovation on Aephoria, and its leadership of FABLE Greece within the global FABLE Consortium. This work advances sustainable development pathways, agri-food system transformation, and biodiversity conservation. The FABLE Calculator supports these efforts by modeling national food and land-use scenarios aligned with global sustainability targets.
