    Food systems in the member states of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) are changing quickly as economies grow, diets become less traditional and policies shift. This report seeks to provide an overview of key tendencies across diverse food systems in the region over the last decade. Its aim is to assist policymakers in making sense of the ways in which underlying drivers are contributing to shifts in food production, distribution and consumption, as well as the associated implications for social, economic, environmental and health outcomes. It consolidates a series of national-level reports developed for individual BSEC member states, a limited number of National Pathways developed in the lead up to the 2021 UN Food Systems Summit and publicly available comparative datasets drawn from a range of sources. A food system typology is used to organize this information and, where possible, identify trends and tendencies over the last decade. Through the analysis in this report an agenda emerges for future collaboration to deepen understanding and promote critical actions to improve food system performance. The following topics represent areas of convergence where collaboration and cooperation across member states would be most effective: food governance, education, social inclusion, nutrition and environment.

    The Black Sea Economic Cooperation Organization (BSEC) is a regional economic intergovernmental organization that aims to foster interaction and cooperation among its members, ensuring peace, stability and prosperity, and encouraging good neighbourly relations in the region. This project was initiated to address the pressing challenges in the BSEC region in terms of sustainable food systems, institutional capacities, poverty alleviation and natural resource management. The problem identified centred on the absence of a coordinated and comprehensive approach to address challenges faced in the food systems of BSEC countries. The primary objectives of the project were to establish the BSEC Cooperation Centre for Sustainable Food Systems (BSEC-CSFS) and to enhance sustainable food systems in BSEC member countries. These objectives were designed to address critical gaps identified in the food systems of the region, emphasizing sustainability, gender responsiveness and institutional networking.
