New approach for assessing food policy coherence
Food systems policy coherence is the alignment of policies that affect the food system with the aim of achieving diverse goals, to ensure that policies designed to improve one food system outcome do not undermine others and, where possible, take advantage of synergies across policy areas. Policy incoherence can lead to inefficiency and lower likelihood of achieving policy goals. To make it easier to assess policy coherence and provide actionable recommendations for enhancing it, GAIN, in collaboration with AKADEMIYA2063, created an easy-to-use toolkit. This toolkit has been applied in 10 countries in Africa and Asia, and partly in Switzerland and the UK, and is freely available.
