The note supports decision-makers and stakeholders in the food and agriculture sector by addressing the following questions: How can food systems better coontribute to healthy diets and prevent all forms of malnutrition? What policy changes are needed to achieve this objective? What is the best way to actually bring about policy change? In a four-step approach the note provides concrete actions to undertake in order to find an answer to them.
