Abstract
● Policy makers need to approach the food system as a complex and dynamic system.
● Strengthening food system governance requires a system approach and the inclusion of stakeholders in the process of building a transformative shared vision.
● Strengthening directionality, coordination, empowerment and reflexivity can support goverments towards more integrated and systemic solutions.
● Strengthening governments’ anticipatory capacity is essential for imagining a future food system that can address trade-offs and anticipate risks and unknowns.
● Key policy message: To achieve a more sustainable food system, governments need to increase their policy capacity for governing a food system transition.
