All Suggested Policies and Actions

We’ve identified the following policies and actions that might address issues with the food system of Montserrat.

Action
Research and develop alternative proteins sources and share the research in the public domain.
Impact
Increase availability, affordability and appeal of alternative micronutrient-rich protein sources and reduce appeal of red meat to high red-meat consumers.
