Sustainable Food Systems as a Driver for the Implementation of the SDGs
According to many international studies, SDG2 (Zero Hunger) is particularly off-track in Europe and globally and many targets might not be achieved by 2030, including those related to healthy diets and sustainable agri-food systems. This study presents new insights to promote the transformation of the EU’s agri-food system, and it calls for more effective multistakeholder engagement mechanisms at the EU and member states’ level to define long-term pathways and specific policies to advance the sustainability of agri-food systems in Europe. It also emphasizes the importance of concerted international action and demand-side measures, including incentives to move toward healthier diets, to achieve simultaneously several SDGs related to agri-food systems, climate mitigation and biodiversity.
