Die Förderung der Einbeziehung der Geschlechter kann sich positiv auf die dreifache Herausforderung der Lebensmittelsysteme auswirken, die darin besteht, Ernährungssicherheit und Ernährung für eine wachsende Bevölkerung zu gewährleisten, den Lebensunterhalt von Millionen von Menschen zu sichern, die in der Lebensmittelversorgungskette arbeiten, und dies auf ökologisch nachhaltige Weise zu tun. Diese positiven Synergien bleiben jedoch oft unsichtbar, da keine nach Geschlecht aufgeschlüsselten Daten erhoben werden. Dieser Bericht fordert die Entwicklung besserer Erkenntnisse über die Geschlechterverhältnisse und die Lebensmittelsysteme als notwendigen ersten Schritt auf dem Weg zur Gleichstellung der Geschlechter. Auf der Grundlage der Erfahrungen der OECD-Länder bietet er einen Fahrplan zur Identifizierung und Überwindung von Evidenzlücken in Bezug auf geschlechtsspezifische Aspekte und politische Maßnahmen, die die Ungleichheit zwischen den Geschlechtern in Lebensmittelsystemen angehen, mit dem Ziel, den Beitrag von Frauen zu Lebensmittelsystemen zu fördern.
