This publication offers a systemic analysis of sustainability in
the food system, taking as its framework the Sustainable
Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations.
Targeted chapters from experts in the field cover main challenges
in the food system and propose methods for achieving long term
sustainability. Authors focus on how sustainability can be achieved
along the whole food chain and in different contexts. Timely issues
such as food security, climate change and migration and sustainable
agriculture are discussed in depth. The volume is unique in its
multidisciplinary and multi-stakeholder approach. Chapter authors
come from a variety of backgrounds, and authors include academic
professors, members of CSO and other international organizations,
and policy makers. This plurality allows for a nuanced analysis of
sustainability goals and practices from a variety of perspectives,
making the book useful to a wide range of readers working in
different areas related to sustainability and food production. The
book is targeted towards the academic community and practitioners
in the policy, international cooperation, nutrition, geography, and
social sciences fields. Professors teaching in nutrition, food
technology, food sociology, geography, global economics, food
systems, agriculture and agronomy, and political science and
international cooperation may find this to be a useful supplemental
text in their courses.
