Abstract

The rapidly growing population is closely linked to food security issues, as itincreases the demand for food and other things. Despite having enough production of food, it seems difficult to accomplish globally set targets of poverty, hunger, and malnutrition. The importance of food systems cannot be ignored while addressing the problem of food security as it is the foundation of global health. Comprehensive and integrated food systems can deliver sufficient and nutritious food for all within the sustainability parameters. The present paper highlights the interlinkages between various dimensions of food systems and food security. The analytical and interactive framework represents a substantial abstraction of a complicated reality and offers both - a theoretical and practical set of instruments for understanding complex food systems and their outcomes.
