Global negotiations in a number of different areas show that power politics often determines negotiation outcomes. This raises a number of ethical challenges. This paper, hence, addresses the question: ‘What are the normative challenges at global level in the context of climate change, water, and forests and what does this imply for food?’ This question is addressed through short case studies on the climate change negotiations, water negotiations, and forest negotiations which discuss the link of each with food, the key ethical issues involved, the state of current governance, and draws inferences for the food regime. It argues that the existing inequities in the food regime globally and locally will be exacerbated by the impacts of climate change, water and forest governance on agricultural productivity. This may, to some extent, be resolved through advances in technological knowledge; but such advances may not necessarily address the distribution problem which is at the heart of normative challenges. The paper argues that one way to try and solve these distributional problems globally, is to promote the adoption of a global constitution and the rule of law.
