Workshop: Standing Committee on Evidence Synthesis and Communications in Diet and Chronic Disease Relationships - Advancing a Food Systems Approach to Prioritize Healthy People and a Healthy Planet
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine established the Standing Committee on Evidence Synthesis and Communications in Diet and Chronic Disease Relationships to monitor current literature and identify emerging issues related to the strength and rigor of scientific evidence in support of nutrition research on chronic disease risk — including effective communication of scientific evidence to the public.
This workshop will discuss the importance of a Food Systems approach, which addresses questions around what we should eat, produce, and manufacture within the greater context of complex health, environmental, and socioeconomic considerations. Speakers will identify challenges and opportunities stemming from such an approach and highlight key recommendations for successful implementation. The workshop will also explore how science related to Food Systems is communicated and consumed by various audiences.
