Abstract
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is preparing a new IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Cities, which will address issues of climate mitigation, adaptation and just transitions in cities and urban systems. In this context, accelerating the sustainable transitions of the diets and food systems of cities is critical to ensuring that the planet remains within key planetary boundaries, including the 1.5 C limit for global warming. The EU/IFAD EcoFoodSystems project [https://ecofoodsystems.org/] is focused on research to enable food systems transitions in city regions that can deliver diets that are more sustainable, healthy and affordable. The EcoFoodSystems project is working with stakeholders in Vietnam (Hanoi), Ethiopia (Addis Ababa) and Colombia (Cali) to conduct research to enable accelerated transitions towards more sustainable, healthy and affordable diets. To contribute to the process for developing the new IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Cities, the EU/IFAD funded EcoFoodSystems project provides the following initial guidance and inputs to the scoping process for the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Cities.
