Abstract
Triple duty actions have been proposed as a way to address the global syndemic of undernutrition, obesity and environmental sustainability with finite resources, by targeting the three components simultaneously. This scoping review investigated which triple duty actions had been carried out or recommended in the literature. A search of 4747 peer reviewed studies identified 27 articles describing triple duty actions. Information on the action, actors and pathways to outcomes was extracted and assessed. Nine triple duty action areas were identified in addition to those summarized in existing reviews. Despite recent interest in this topic, only six articles covered existing (as opposed to recommended) actions, and many articles were weak on addressing one of the three components, despite being framed as triple duty. Many articles stopped short of suggesting how actions could be carried out in practice and by whom. These gaps suggest that evidence on the explicit integration of nutrition and environmental sustainability in policies and programmes is nascent in the literature.
期刊介绍：
Food Security is a wide audience, interdisciplinary, international journal dedicated to the procurement, access (economic and physical), and quality of food, in all its dimensions. Scales range from the individual to communities, and to the world food system. We strive to publish high-quality scientific articles, where quality includes, but is not limited to, the quality and clarity of text, and the validity of methods and approaches.
Food Security is the initiative of a distinguished international group of scientists from different disciplines who hold a deep concern for the challenge of global food security, together with a vision of the power of shared knowledge as a means of meeting that challenge. To address the challenge of global food security, the journal seeks to address the constraints - physical, biological and socio-economic - which not only limit food production but also the ability of people to access a healthy diet.
From this perspective, the journal covers the following areas:
Global food needs: the mismatch between population and the ability to provide adequate nutrition
Global food potential and global food production
Natural constraints to satisfying global food needs:
§ Climate, climate variability, and climate change
§ Desertification and flooding
§ Natural disasters
§ Soils, soil quality and threats to soils, edaphic and other abiotic constraints to production
§ Biotic constraints to production, pathogens, pests, and weeds in their effects on sustainable production
The sociological contexts of food production, access, quality, and consumption.
Nutrition, food quality and food safety.
Socio-political factors that impinge on the ability to satisfy global food needs:
§ Land, agricultural and food policy
§ International relations and trade
§ Access to food
§ Financial policy
§ Wars and ethnic unrest
Research policies and priorities to ensure food security in its various dimensions.
