Foresight report

This report was commissioned by the Global Panel in 2015 and looks out to 2035 and beyond. It considers low and middle income countries in particular, and takes a fresh look at the diverse challenges that decision-makers will face as they try to ensure healthy and nutritious diets. It also sets out priorities for action to prepare for the future. The report draws on the latest science and evidence, and has been compiled by a team of world class experts, led by Dr. Lawrence Haddad (IFPRI).
