Focus and Scope

Journal of Nutrition for Planetary Sustainability is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to the dissemination of high-quality research and reviews in the field of nutrition and sustainable food systems. The journal specifically emphasizes the integration of nutrition science with environmental sustainability, aiming to bridge the gap between scientific evidence, public health practice, and policy development to promote healthier populations and a more sustainable planet. It highlights critical issues such as sustainable diets, food systems transformation, food waste reduction, and global nutrition challenges, with the goal of supporting evidence-based strategies that improve nutritional outcomes while preserving environmental resources for future generations.
