However, the transformation of food systems requires rigorous monitoring to hold food system actors to account.

This webinar will highlight frameworks that can be used to monitor food system transformation. Dr. Jessica Fanzo will discuss the use of a food system monitoring framework as well as the food system dashboard to monitor food system transformation.
