Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition (FSN Forum)

Re: Call for best practices in transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets and addressing key drivers of food insecurity and malnutrition

Dear FAO, Forum Members,

This message is from an independent scientist based in Hyderabad, India. I am an electronics engineer with systems engineering specialization from Linkoping University Sweden. Currently, my research focus is on food, health and nutrition. I feel that the current food system capacity is more than the nutritious food requirement of world population. Current food system can be modified to meet the requirements of all income groups in most of the countries in the world. There is no need for disruptive food system transformation. It is possible to achieve ‘Zero Hunger through Soya Beans Supplements to Local Food’ and ‘Hot, Healthy and Nutritious Food Delivered @ Home’. My study is in initial stages, but gave promising results. I am trying two different approaches to scale my models. 1) As a volunteer in an NGO active in rural transformation. 2) A group of like minded engineering professionals interested in ‘giving back to the society’.
