We have to CHANGE how we EAT and GROW food to provide sustainable healthy diets to a growing population. A food system transformation is necessary to fight climate change, environmental degradation and the different forms of malnutrition that still coexist.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

More than 820 million people in the world are undernourished, over 2\nbillion people suffer from micronutrient deficiencies while about 2 billion\nadults are overweight. Land use change and the intensive production of food and\nfeed has caused serious negative environmental impacts such as soil erosion, freshwater\ncontamination and depletion, the destruction of natural ecosystems and\nbiodiversity loss. Providing regular access to sufficient, safe and nutritious\nfood for a growing population without depleting the natural resources is a key\nglobal challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how can this be achieved? What\nare the key problems that persist or emerge in local or global food systems? What\nprojects or initiatives do already exist that address certain aspects of these\nchallenges? At what stage of the food value chains do they interfere? And what does\nthe current state of research in food and agriculture tell us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cEat Grow Change\u201d Blog was\nestablished in 2020 as a platform to discuss and reflect on facts and opinions about\nchallenges and innovative solutions related to the world food system. It is a\npublic space that is meant to stimulate thoughts and inspire creative thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blog articles are primarily written\nby students, lecturers and researchers from the Zurich University of Applied\nSciences dealing with topics related to agriculture, food and nutrition. They can\ncomprise social, political, ecological, economic, technical or cultural aspects\nof food systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
