The Global Panel on Agriculture and Food Systems for Nutrition, September 2020
Food systems require fundamental transformation to promote sustainable healthy diets for all, and must focus on food availability, accessibility, affordability, and desirability. While much focus is on low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), high-income countries also have a vital role, particularly when their decisions affect LMICs. Policies must make sustainable, nutrient-rich, and staple goods available to all, ensure value chains improve accessibility and lower costs, and empower consumers to make informed choices to increase demand for healthy, sustainable diets.
