The Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition Project (www.b4fn.org) which is being carried out in Brazil, Kenya, Sri Lanka and Turkey. The aim of the project is to strengthen the conservation and sustainable management of nationally-important agricultural biodiversity by providing evidence of their nutritional importance and mainstreaming into national and global nutrition, food and livelihood security strategies and programmes.
Mme Teresa Borelli

The project addressesed malnutrition, farmer livelihood resilience, and sustainability through the lens of agricultural biodiversity; in short, by documenting information on the nutrient content of a wide variety of indigenous foods and sharing the information with policy makers and consumers.
