Description

This collection of case studies explores the rationale used by selected countries to establish food and nutrition policies to protect the health of their populations, identifies the approaches used in doing so, and describes the key challenges and lessons learned, including from the civil society perspective.

This document also aims to complement From Policy to Plate: An Advocacy Guide to turn global food and nutrition commitments into action to prevent diet-related NCDs.

It provides civil society with a call to action and recommendations to advance diet-related NCD prevention in the context of 2025, a year of key global events for health and nutrition policy, such as the Paris Nutrition for Growth Summit, the UN Food Systems Summit +4 Stocktake, the upcoming UN High-Level Meeting on NCDs and Mental Health, and the next UN Climate Change Conference (COP30).
