DESCRIPTION:Global science and continental policy have converged on a simi
 lar ambition. The EAT–Lancet Commission set out what healthy diets from 
 sustainable food systems would require\, while the African Union's CAADP p
 rocess has brought agriculture\, nutrition and food systems into a shared 
 framework of commitments and accountability. Yet ambition on paper and foo
 d on plates remain far apart. This lecture looks at the political processe
 s through which change is enacted and at the main breaking points. Some ar
 e political: fragmented mandates\, limited financing\, and a policy–rese
 arch interface where evidence and decision-making too often move on separa
 te tracks. Others lie within the food system itself\, in rapidly changing 
 food environments\, and in the exposure of all of this to climate and econ
 omic shocks. Drawing on experience working at that interface across nation
 al\, continental and global levels\, the lecture reflects on what has move
 d\, what has not\, and where the leverage for change now lies.
