This consultation is important to bring together all the evidence that is currently available to support an evolving global food system that can address malnutrition. There are many different facets of malnutrition and no one solution can respond to it. It is important to realize that food systems also evolve with a cultural twist and as such changes in behavior and aculturation become relevant topics to discuss. As governments move towards encouraging a fine balance between cultivation of cash crops and nutritious crops for national food baskets, evidence generation in a pulled effort becomes even more important in achieving this goal. Initiatives such as bioforiifcation of staples supported by CGIAR centers will also contribute to a changing food system in the contect of nutrition, sustainability, price/market fluctuation and climate change.
