Synopsis (short abstract) 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 papers contained in this issue have been selected from those presented at a series of workshops, held in 2002 in Hungary, Uganda, Mexico and Cambodia, that were organized by the World Bank jointly with the Department for International Development (DFID), the French Ministry for Foreign Affairs, the German Agency for Technical Cooperation (GTZ), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), and with FAO, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the African development Bank (AfDB), the European Union (EU), the International Land Coalition, Oxfam, and other bilateral and multilateral agencies. The purpose of these meetings was to provide input into the World Banks Policy Research Report: Land Policies for Growth and Poverty Reduction, which was prepared under the authorship of Klaus Deininger of the World Banks Development Research Group. Building on the discussions at these workshops, this report (which can be accessed at http://econ.worldbank.org/prr/land_policy/ ) identifies general principles for policies to strengthen tenure security, improve the functioning of land markets and ensure socially desirable land use.
