FSEC website

The Food System Economics Commission (FSEC) has brought together leading experts to develop a unique economic model that maps for the first time the impacts of two possible futures for the global food system: our Current Trends pathway, and the Food System Transformation pathway.

The FSEC is an independent academic commission set up to equip political and economic decision-makers with tools and evidence to shift food and land-use systems towards healthy, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable futures.
