Hungry Cities: The Global Revolution in Food Systems

Drivers of food choice in low- and middle-income countries were explored in the ILSI Research Foundation Scientific Session on January 23, 2017, with presentations from experts who shared their research and perspectives on how to address changes in food systems. Diets in poor, urban areas are currently changing, reflecting the growth of the proportion of the global population living in cities, as well as an increased number of women entering the workforce seeking time and labor saving food options.
