The goal of the FLOW Partnership is to support, track, and communicate about sustainable, resilient regional food systems through an extensive international network of food system researchers, practitioners, and community partners. Our research will map and monitor the pathways between specific practices and impacts across social, environmental, and economic factors as we work to build increasingly just, equitable, ecological, and circular regional food systems.

With our partner organizations, we will create compelling, indicator-driven narratives about the interrelated effects that these practices have on the regional level, using them to amplify meaningful, long-term change among a range of audiences. In all, FLOW will contribute to innovation in both the theory and practice of sustainable regional food systems.
