dc.descriptionThis Perspectives document examines how food systems can be transformed to make healthy diets accessible and affordable while improving public health, environmental sustainability, and climate resilience. It explains that unhealthy dietary patterns contribute to disease, food insecurity, biodiversity loss, and greenhouse gas emissions, with the coronavirus pandemic exposing existing weaknesses in global food systems. The document discusses barriers including affordability, accessibility, and unsustainable production practices, and presents a framework for action involving governments, farmers, businesses, and consumers. It emphasises policy reform, subsidy reallocation, nutrition education, reduced food waste, sustainable agriculture, and increased adoption of plant-rich diets and innovative food alternatives.en
