Farming Matters - Regional food systems

What determines that a food system is sustainable? How can it be more inclusive? How does a global and local perspective interact? What are the main obstacles for a shift towards better or more efficient food systems? And how to activate changes?

These are the questions considered in the latest issue of Farming Matters, where articles show that regional food systems can contribute to increasing food security while at the same time benefiting the environment and increasing the autonomy of farmers.
