引导欧盟食品体系实现可持续发展转型需要一个广泛的、可操作的知识库，供一系列公共和私人行为体使用。很少有人通过从多维度和多层次的角度评估粮食系统来捕捉这种复杂性，其中包括（1）营养和饮食，环境和经济成果以及社会公平维度;（2）国家，欧盟和全球范围内的系统相互作用。本文通过提供一种综合的分析方法和新的方式来传达科学之外的这种复杂性，从而解决了食品系统研究和科学传播中的这一差距。基于跨学科的科学方法和持续的利益相关者投入，欧盟地平线2020项目“欧洲可持续粮食和营养安全的模型，模型和模型”（SUSFANS）开发了一个五步过程：创建一个参与空间;设计欧盟粮食系统的概念框架;开发粮食系统绩效指标;设计建模工具箱和开发可视化工具。可持续粮食和营养展示台旨在交流复杂的政策变化影响和权衡问题，使人们能够就粮食系统参与者之间以及政策制定竞技场中与变化选择相关的权衡进行知情辩论。讨论强调了与指标制定、评估模型的覆盖范围、参与进程和科学传播障碍有关的进一步研究要点。
Steering the EU food system towards a sustainability transformation requires a vast and actionable knowledge base available to a range of public and private actors. Few have captured this complexity by assessing food systems from a multi-dimensional and multi-level perspective, which would include (1) nutrition and diet, environmental and economic outcomes together with social equity dimensions and (2) system interactions across country, EU and global scales. This paper addresses this gap in food systems research and science communication by providing an integrated analytical approach and new ways to communicate this complexity outside science. Based on a transdisciplinary science approach with continuous stakeholder input, the EU Horizon2020 project ‘Metrics, Models and Foresight for European SUStainable Food And Nutrition Security’ (SUSFANS) developed a five-step process: Creating a participatory space; designing a conceptual framework of the EU food system; developing food system performance metrics; designing a modelling toolbox and developing a visualization tool. The Sustainable Food and Nutrition-Visualizer, designed to communicate complex policy change-impacts and trade-off questions, enables an informed debate about trade-offs associated with options for change among food system actors as well as in the policy making arena. The discussion highlights points for further research related to indicator development, reach of assessment models, participatory processes and obstacles in science communication.
