This event, co-organized by the Asian Development Bank and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) will present an overview of IFPRI’s 2024 Global Food Policy Report on Food Systems for Healthy Diets and Nutrition. This report examines a diverse set of food system solutions to improve diet and nutrition outcomes while also considering the environmental impact of food systems. The report draws on research conducted by IFPRI, CGIAR and partners to explore issues such as how demand-side approaches and changes in food environments can support healthy dietary choices, the need to increase the affordability and supply of nutrient-dense foods as well as how effective governance can help achieve positive change. In regional chapters, the findings are contextualized, and critical challenges and opportunities are highlighted for each region. During this event, the contextualized findings for the East and Southeast Region will be featured.
More about the Global Food Policy Report
IFPRI’s 2024 Global Food Policy Report: Food Systems for Healthy Diets and Nutrition draws on a substantial body of research on diets, agriculture, and food systems from IFPRI and CGIAR, in partnership with colleagues around the world. It explores how demand-side approaches can support healthy dietary choices, the need to invest in improving affordability, and ways to strengthen food environments to support healthy diets. The report also highlights supply-side approaches to improve diets, including increasing consumption of fruits and vegetables and assessing the role of animal-source foods, and discusses how effective governance can help achieve change. For each of the world’s major regions, the report identifies critical challenges and opportunities for contextually relevant actions to deliver healthy diets and nutrition for all.
