This input paper delves into three selected policy approaches to support more plant-based diets. The selection of the three policy approaches was based on preliminary work in Wunder et al. (2022). Based on a literature review using the COM-B behaviour change model by Michie et al. (2014), 17 factors influencing behaviour were identified that are relevant for increasing more plant-based diets in Germany. Subsequently, 12 policy approaches were derived that can be used to address the 17 identified influencing factors. For the selection of the three approaches in this paper, on the one hand, the assessment of the relevance of the influencing factors was taken into account. In addition, care was also taken to ensure that they have an effect on several influencing factors, address as many of the 12 approaches to action identified in Wunder et al. (2022) as possible and have so far tended to be less the focus of discussion. The selected approaches to action are:

institutionalisation through a federal programme and a foundation,
urban and regional planning, and
vocational education and training.

The paper provided the basis for the STErn expert workshop on 28 November 2022.

Overview: Measures to implement the three STErn-strategies

Year 2023

Publication:Brochure

The brochure summarizes all the recommendations for action that were developed as part of the STErn project. Objectives and indicators are outlined for each key topic of the STErn project.

Components for the Transformation towards a Sustainable Food System

Year 2023

Publication:Report

This report summarises key findings and recommendations for a strategy to promote more plant-based diets. This strategy is key for a sustainable transformation of food systems as so far, there is a lack of binding policy targets for sustainable nutrition to guide actions, and indicators to enable monitoring. This report discusses different options for targets and indicators, drawing on the concept of planetary boundaries and the Planetary Health Diet.

Entwicklung von politischen Handlungsansätzen für die Unterstützung stärker pflanzenbasierter Ernährungsweisen

Year 2023

Publication:Report

This report discusses the question of what degree of importance German environmental policy should attach to the regionalization of value chains and the role this approach might play in a socio-ecological transformation of the food system.

Steps for the Transformation to a Sustainable Food System

Recommendations for action of the STErn project

21 March 2023
Berlin, Germany

Publication:Conference Paper

Germany's current nutrition system is not sustainable; it requires a far-reaching socio-ecological transformation. This finding forms the starting thesis of the STErn project, whose interim results and policy recommendations for action were discussed at a workshop on 21 March 2023. This paper provided the basis for the discussion.

This discussion paper focuses on the potential for political intervention to promote regionalization (in the interests of sustainability) in the most effective way possible. It is part of the work of the research project "Socio-ecological Transformation of the Food System" (acronym STErn) carried out on behalf of UBA/BMU.

On 4 July 2022, around 30 experts discussed political strategies for a regionalization of the food system, achieving as many positive sustainability effects as possible and avoiding negative impacts. The discussion was based on an input paper by the project team, the core statements of which were presented in two short presentations by the main author, Gerolf Hanke (Oeko-Institut).
