Policymakers often have difficulty accessing and visualizing food systems data, which limits their ability to identify gaps, compare change over time, and develop policies to improve nutrition. Recognizing this need, researchers are developing a Food Systems Dashboard, an open-source digital tool that compiles data from over 30 sources and organizes them into country profiles. It includes features to help users compare countries’ food systems data and prioritize policy actions to improve food systems and nutrition.
