Biodiversity in Food Systems
As we grapple with the challenges of feeding the growing world population without destroying our planet, agendas are increasingly turning to the role of biodiversity in food systems. Biodiversity at all levels – genetic, species and ecosystems – is the basis of our food system, yet our comprehension of its role is often overlooked or undervalued. WUR delivers world-leading research in both food and biodiversity. Its food systems approach acknowledges the many interlinkages between people, agriculture, biodiversity, water, health and climate change. WUR’s ambition is to leverage the role of biodiversity in this food systems thinking, and thus provide thought leadership that contributes to transforming our food systems and bending the curve of biodiversity loss.
