    Brief

    The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is seeking a rapid evidence review to analyze how recent and ongoing disruptions have affected the UK food system. This review will examine impacts from the Covid-19 pandemic, geopolitical events, trade route disruption, and climate change on food businesses, consumers, supply chains, and stakeholders. The study will assess implications for food safety, food authenticity, consumer interests, and food crime prevention. The findings will help the FSA understand the current evidence base on food system resilience, support recovery planning, and identify gaps requiring further research. This is a call-off contract from C425727 Research: Social Science Call-Off.
