Sustainable food system assessment provides both practical and theoretical insights about the growing interest in and response to measuring food system sustainability. Bringing together research from the global north and south, this book shares lessons learned, explores intended and actual project outcomes, and highlights points of conceptual and methodological convergence. Interest in assessing food system sustainability is growing, as evidenced by the milan urban food policy pact and the importance food-systems initiatives have taken in serving as a lever for attaining the un sustainable development goals. This book opens by looking at the conceptual considerations of food systems indicators, including the place-based dimensions of food systems indicators and how measurements are implicated in sense-making and visioning processes. Chapters in the second section cover operationalizing metrics, including the development of food systems indicator frameworks, degrees of indicator complexities, and practical constraints to assessment.
