Legal Governance of Green Investment as a Mechanism for Enhancing Food Security in the Face of Climate and Digital Transitions

Abstract

In recent years, the world has witnessed accelerating transformations driven by climate change and the digital revolution. These developments have directly impacted global food security and the capacity of states to achieve sustainable development that ensures the right to food for all. Against this backdrop, there is a growing need to develop an integrated legal framework that coordinates environmental and investment legislation to ensure effective legal governance of green investment. This, in turn, will help to protect natural resources and encourage sustainable investment projects related to food production. 

This study aims to analyse the complementary relationship between environmental and investment legislation within the framework of enhancing food security, while emphasising the role of legal governance in addressing climate and digital challenges. The study also assesses the effectiveness of legal policies in supporting green investment and achieving a balance between environmental protection requirements and economic development promotion. 

The study concludes that ensuring food security is not solely dependent on increasing agricultural production, but rather hinges on the existence of a flexible and integrated legal framework that can adapt to environmental and digital transformations. Such a framework would encourage sustainable investments based on innovation and modern technology. It also emphasises the need to strengthen environmental oversight and update the legislative system to ensure legal security for investors and protect natural resources for future generations.
