Food Nexus programmes organize its work on food and agriculture, trade, resources and supply chains, and climate and hazards at three levels: global priorities, regional applications and country work. Each programme shows its recorded status, from exploring and forming to active, paused or archived, and a plan is never presented as an activity. Countries take part through their national programmes and the Consortium Secretariat.

Plains, deltas and basins, the corridors that carry food to ports, and how far each division sits from one, shown for Indonesia as an example geography for this subject.
Food security is decided by global markets, regional production and trade, and national policies on stocks, trade and social protection. Each level has its own institutions and evidence needs.
A programme is shown as exploring, forming, constituted, active, paused or archived, according to its record. A plan is never presented as an activity.
Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.
