The consortium research program, “Ekomer” constructed a Responsible Consumption Index (RCI) built on food source, food acquisition (direct producer-consumer exchange) and production (agroecological or organic). The consortium worked with colleagues in the Ministry of Health and Agriculture to directly inform and shape a series of political debates and policy initiatives. The work of each research team in the consortium is summarized. Six of the top seven causes of death in Ecuador are associated with or influenced by poor quality diets and obesity. An Inter-sectoral Plan on Food and Nutrition (PIANE) was launched for 2018-2025.
