| dc.description.abstract | This is a product of efforts and synergies from various stakeholders whose common goal is to implement the provisions of the third Kisumu County Integrated Development Plan 2023-2027 (CIDP III). It is envisaged that this document will be critical in integrating the efforts of all other stakeholders in contributing towards a sustainable food system.
Food System is a county, national and international agenda. The National Food and Nutrition Security Policy of 2011 together with its implementation framework of 2017-2022 is aligned to this Strategy. It directs governments, both county and national levels to work toward ensuring that all Kenyans, at all times have access to safe, healthy food, water in sufficient quantity and quality to satisfy their nutritional needs for optimal health. At the international arena, the aspiration of this strategy is addressed by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the year 2030.
This Food System Strategy has captured the entire range of actors and their interlinked value-adding activities involved in the production, aggregation, processing, distribution, consumption and disposal of food products that originate from agriculture, forestry and parts of the broader economic, societal and natural environments in which they are embedded.
In addition, the strategy has identified the critical sub-systems in Kisumu | en |
