Description SUSFANS presents a novel approach to deliver quantitative foresight on diet change, policy and production system innovations, and assess the potential impact on the sustainability performance of the EU food system: • Include EU-specific nutrition surveillance data (i.e. individual food intake) in a framework for integrated multi-criteria assessment of the EU and global food system, benchmarking national data against a reference sustainable, healthy diet for EU. • Modelling the entire system, including post-harvest food handling & retail, global trade, natural resource use, food loss and waste, and impacts on diets, environment, economy and equity. • Exploring instruments and transformative pathways incl. economic sustainability and equity. • The SUSFANS modelling toolbox comprises of five models: MAGNET (developed by Wageningen Economic Research), SHARP diets (developed by Wageningen University and partners), DIET (developed by Luke and INRA), GLOBIOM & AgriPrice4Cast (developed by IIASA) and CAPRI (developed by Bonn University and EC’s Joint Research Centre).
