Contexte |
Due to the pandemic, conflicts, climate change as well as high energy and food costs, all forms of malnutrition and hunger have worsened significantly since 2019, reversing a decade of progress. One in three people worldwide is malnourished. Since the UN Food Systems Summit, there is growing recognition that food systems need to change to reverse these trends and reach the Sustainable Development Goals. Transforming food systems to ensure healthier diets from sustainable food systems accessible to all people, and especially the most vulnerable to environmental and economic shocks, requires contributions of all stakeholders. Governments, including sub-national representatives, need support to align policies across sectors to create healthier and more inclusive food environments for low- and middleincome consumers, in particular for women and youth. The private sector needs to be mobilized to bring to domestic markets more diversified nutritious food produced sustainably and SMEs need to be better financed. Insights, innovations and best practices from improved national food systems need to be widely shared at global level and adapted for replication. |
Objectifs | To improve nutrition outcomes for the most vulnerable populations, in particular women and youth, in low- and middle-income countries, in particular in Sub Saharan Africa, through improved and more inclusive policy and market-based solutions in the food system. |
Groupes cibles |
Direct beneficiaries: Governments (including at sub-national levels such as cities), civil society associations (of consumers, women, youth), SMEs in low- and middle-income countries. Ultimate beneficiaries: Poor and marginalized people in low- and middle- income countries, in particular women and youth. |
Effets à moyen terme |
- Consumption of safe, healthy, affordable, nutritious food produced in an environmentally sustainable way has improved in 10 countries because their national Food System Pathways have been implemented in a more inclusive and participatory way by empowering in particular women, youth, low- and middle income consumers and by engaging with the private sector. - SMEs in the nutrition sector for domestic consumption in Sub-Saharan Africa have better access to finance thanks to an innovative debtfund. - Data, evidence, guidance and innovative best practices on food systems transformation are available and shared globally with countries, with public and private financing mechanisms and various stakeholders for stronger learning and accountability. |
