Seven calls to action for a transition towards more sustainable food systems by addressing the critical underlying structures that hold back much-needed food systems transformation. […] In Latin America, family farming initiatives and the agroecology movement contributed organizational and capacity development among producers and consumers during the Covid-19 pandemic, highlighting the key role played by local food systems and value chains, and the need to strengthen them through public policies. […] This policy briefing makes the case for reforming the way agricultural and food systems development is financed, in order to support transformation in food systems through agroecology. […] The age-old technique of sowing water is an opportunity to meet farming’s’ water needs and mitigate the increasingly visible effects of climate change. […] This FAO paper provides examples of how agroecological approaches can contribute to transforming food systems and developing a greener, more resilient and more inclusive “new normal” after Covid-19. […] A meta-analysis covering 51 countries has found that small farms tend to be more productive and biodiverse than large ones, and roughly as profitable and resource-efficient. […] Small farmers across Asia are mobilising real agroecological alternatives to face the climate crisis based on their right to self-determination, community building and food sovereignty. […] This open access book develops a framework for advancing agroecology in transformations towards more just and sustainable food systems. […] A biodiversity-based agroecological paradigm will provide a systemic approach to addressing issues of biodiversity loss, nutritional and food security, and resiliency to respond to a variety of crises.
