Routledge Biodiversity, Food and Nutrition - New Agenda Book

Biodiversity, Food and Nutrition: A New Agenda for Sustainable Food Systems explores the connection between current food systems and the challenges of poor diet and nutrition. This book examines how biodiversity and ecosystem services can help address global nutrition problems. Building on research from the Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition Project (BFN), the text looks at ways to link biodiversity, diets, and nutrition more effectively. It highlights the need for a multi-level and cross-sectoral approach to connect the conservation of food biodiversity with sustainable use. By addressing these links, the book offers insights into solving critical issues within our current food systems, including the ongoing struggle with malnutrition. This work is an essential resource for understanding how protecting biological diversity can support better health outcomes and more sustainable food production models.
