The purpose of Transforming Food and Agriculture through a Systems Approach is to clarify what a systems approach involves in practice across agrifood systems. It explains what a systems approach means in the context of agrifood systems, why it matters, and how to adopt it. It advances the operationalization of a systems approach by outlining the key shifts needed to embed systems thinking into policies, programmes, projects, and interventions, and illustrating how countries, regions, and municipalities are putting these shifts into practice.
