Former President Barack Obama is travelling to Italy to speak about climate change and food security.

He will be in Milan on Monday and Tuesday where he will meet with Italians, "including friends that he made while in office," a statement said Sunday. It was sent only moments after Obama spoke at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston, where he was awarded the Profiles in Courage Award.

On Monday afternoon, the statement says Obama will meet privately with former Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. In the evening, he'll meet have a private dinner with "a number of Italians from different sectors," hosted by the Institute for International Political Studies.

On Tuesday Obama is slated to deliver keynote remarks at the Seeds and Chips Global Food Innovation Summit. The statement notes that the summit's theme this year is "The Impact of Technology and Innovation on Climate Change and Food Availability Around the World." Obama will also participate in a Q&A after the speech with Sam Kass, who worked as White House chef and nutrition adviser under Obama.

Obama's remarks on climate abroad come at a time when President Trump is mulling whether to pull the U.S. out of the Paris climate agreement, which was championed by the Obama administration. Trump also signed an executive order rolling back some Obama-era climate regulations.
