Rethinking Food Markets
Knowledge Platform for Inclusive and Sustainable Food Markets and Value Chains (KISM)
Knowledge tools for policy coherence and market reform for inclusive and sustainable food market transformation
Researchers are working to fill pressing knowledge gaps by establishing (a) a global knowledge platform that – with active engagement of stakeholders – collects and shares evidence on the effectiveness of policies and innovations for inclusive and sustainable food system transformation and (b) new, integrated global database and modelling tools that measure and analyze the potential for income and employment generation, reducing the environmental footprint and prioritizing policy support across value chains and markets. Ultimately, the goal is to enable evidence-based policy and public and private investment decisions that help create inclusive and sustainable food value chains and markets.
