Food and nutritional security refers to the challenge of providing
sustainable, healthy and accessible food to all people. It has four
interconnected dimensions: availability, access, utilization and stability.
Tackling this tremendous challenge means transforming our food systems and
mobilizing key stakeholders and decision-makers to leverage intersectoral
knowledge and scientific evidence. From 2014 to 2020, CIRAD and INRAE led an
ambitious interdisciplinary flagship programme on the transitions for global
food security called GloFoodS.

Authored by principal investigators and contributors to research projects
funded by GloFoodS, this book is representative of the programme’s
interdisciplinary research but does not claim to provide exhaustive coverage
of topics and approaches of food security. It presents recent research
findings from many disciplines, including the life, engineering and social
sciences. The findings were drawn from different analysis scales as well as
from the combination of local and global food security approaches. The various
chapters explore issues such as food system governance, balance and
discrepancies between agricultural supply and food needs, the role of
innovations in providing high-quality foods and promoting resilient value
chains, and the role of local resource management in achieving food security.

This book will be of interest to a broad scientific audience of researchers,
academics, food systems professionals and decision-makers, as well as readers
interested in food and nutritional security issues.

Read the foreword (Michel Eddi, former CEO of CIRAD and Philippe Mauguin, CEO
of INRAE) and the preface (Alban Thomas, INRAE, and Etienne Hainzelin, CIRAD,
co-directors of GloFoodS)
