World Food Policy (WFP) semi-annually publishes research-based articles exploring various aspects of
policies and decisions that affect food systems at the global, regional and transnational levels. Articles on
policies pertaining to non-food commodities with noticeable impact on the world food sector or comparative
national food policies are also within the scope of the journal.
The aim of WFP is to promote a multi-disciplinary forum for generating the analysis and understanding of
global trends as well as regional and local forces shaping food and food policies around the world. The editors
warmly invite submissions at: [email protected]
