Table_1_Food governance for better access to sustainable diets: A review.xlsx

‘Governance’, understood as organizational governance, is essential to more sustainable food provisioning systems ensuring sustainable health, heritage, and natural environments. Governance enables regional and local perspectives to be aligned with commitments from national and international organizations. Within the wealth of scholarship on food systems governance, agricultural governance and agency is a rarely interrogated dimension, despite the clear impacts of agricultural decisions on health and environmental outcomes. In this paper we discuss the findings of a scoping review that focuses on the question “How can food governance transform food systems to ensure better access to sustainable diets?”, meaning diet that protect health, cultures, and the natural environment. Our results show that it is first needed to determine the governance level and the expected outcomes. From a national perspective, policy coherence is described as a way in which different public institutions can add to the sustainable diets access goal. From a local perspective, community supported activities and the incorporation of local knowledge are also described as ways that can help achieving an improvement on sustainable diets access. Either from a regional or local perspective, commitment from organizations must be ensured for common objectives being aligned. Also, it is necessary to request more from the agricultural sector role in delivering nutritionally and environmentally appropriate food. Thus, the idea of governing agriculture as a health and environmental activity is an approach that should be considered when designing, implementing, and assessing food systems.

治理（Governance），即组织治理，对于构建更可持续的粮食供给体系至关重要，该体系可保障健康、文化遗产与自然环境的可持续性。治理能够使区域与地方层面的视角与国家及国际组织的相关承诺保持一致。尽管农业决策对健康与环境结果存在明确影响，但在海量粮食系统治理相关学术研究中，农业治理与农业行动主体这一维度却极少被深入探究。本论文探讨了一项范围综述的研究结果，该综述聚焦于“粮食治理应如何变革粮食系统，以提升人们对可持续膳食的可及性”这一问题——此处可持续膳食指能够保护健康、文化与自然环境的膳食。研究结果显示，首先需要明确治理层级与预期目标。从国家层面来看，政策协同被视为不同公共机构推进可持续膳食可及性目标的有效路径；从地方层面而言，社区支持型活动与本土知识的融入，同样可助力提升可持续膳食的可及性。无论是区域还是地方层面，都必须保障各组织做出承诺，以协调一致地实现共同目标。此外，还需强化农业部门在提供营养均衡且环境友好的粮食方面的作用。因此，将农业治理视作一项健康与环境相关活动的理念，在设计、实施与评估粮食系统的过程中值得纳入考量范畴。
