Game Changing Propositions
Over 1,200 ideas were received by the Action Tracks. The ideas were fleshed out and then synthesized into 107 initial propositions. These emerging propositions will undergo between May and June, a wide range of stakeholder consultations. This will be done in close coordination with Food Systems Summit Dialogues and the work of the Scientific Committee.
Introducing Action Areas
The five Synthesis papers present the result of ideas submitted between December and February, integrated across Action Track teams, with the support of cross-cutting Levers of Change, and consolidated into approximatively 20 potential game-changing propositions per Action Track. These propositions fall under 15 action areas. Such areas would be the starting point of coalitions of action which could help national governments and multi-stakeholders adopt, on a voluntary basis, transformational pathways and associated policy and behavioural shifts towards more sustainable food systems.
Action Track 1
Access to safe nutritious food for all
Action Track 1 will work to end hunger and all forms of malnutrition and reduce the incidence of non-communicable disease, enabling all people to be nourished and healthy. This goal requires that all people at all times have access to sufficient quantities of affordable and safe food products. Achieving the goal means increasing the availability of nutritious food, making food more affordable and reducing inequities in access to food.

Action Track 2
Sustainable consumption
Action Track 2 works to catalyse the shift to sustainable and healthy consumption patterns through changes in policies, food environments, civil society actions, private sector offerings and consumer behaviours. We need a transition towards diets which are healthier, safer, climate and nature-positive, eliminate food waste and build circular food economies. This transformative shift in consumption must strengthen livelihoods, agency, opportunities and dignity of the most disadvantaged and vulnerable, especially smallholders, indigenous people, the urban poor and, not least, women and girls.

Action Track 3
Nature positive production
Action Track 3 will work to optimize environmental resource use in food production, processing and distribution, thereby reducing biodiversity loss, pollution, water use, soil degradation and greenhouse gas emissions. In its pursuit of this goal, the Action Track will aim to deepen understanding of the constraints and opportunities facing smallholder farmers and
small-scale enterprises along the food value chain. It will also strive to support food system governance that realigns incentives to reduce food losses and other negative environmental impacts.

Action Track 4
Livelihood and equality
Action Track 4 will work to contribute to the elimination of poverty by promoting full and productive employment and decent work for all actors along the food value chain, reducing risks for the world’s poorest, enabling entrepreneurship and addressing the inequitable access to resources and distribution of value. Action Track 4 will improve resilience through social protection and seek to ensure that food systems “leave no one
behind”

Action Track 5
Resilience
AT5 will ensure that food systems which are aff ected by con flict, climate, environmental, natural, health and economic shocks
and stresses, can anticipate, maintain functionality, recover, and improve to a better-o ff state. The track will focus on integrated and nexus approaches to reduce vulnerability to compounded risks; structural fragility and systemic causes on risk reduction; and on multi-risk and crisis management across and within the Food systems.

Cross-cutting
Governance, across local and national levels has been identified as a cross-cutting action area—one that relates to many of the cluster solutions put forward by the Action Tracks. The Governance Action Area includes two main areas of focus: 1) Food System Summit (FSS) governance and 2) food systems governance more broadly.
