Description
The goal is to produce a system of indicators that can provide social, economic and environmental information about the metropolitan area food system, including information on the system's interrelated features and how it affects other phenomena such as land-use planning, economic activity, culture and heritage, social cohesiveness, public health, eating habits, consumption patterns, the environment, ecosystem services and other areas of public policy, among other issues.
There are plans to carry out a comparative international study of how areas similar to the metropolitan area of Barcelona analyse and assess regional and metropolitan area food systems. The study will identify the main indicators used in these other areas, their sources of data, their methods of assessing local policy and how they present this information on their food systems.
