Fairness and One Health in Food Systems: Developing the Research Agenda

Abstract

This article explores the extant literature on Fairness and One Health within Food Systems. This was conducted using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses - Scoping Review) methodology. The approach identifies the themes relevant to Fairness and One Health and how they interact. Bibliometric analysis was conducted using Bibliometrix (available in R-package software) and Visioviewer to identify appropriate and consistent key trends of Fairness, One Health, and the interconnectedness of the two concepts. These are then used to propose key future research directions. The research agenda focuses on several key themes within Fairness, One Health, intersection, and emerging areas. Under Fairness themes, it explores enhancing Food Justice for equitable access, the impact of Social Justice policies on food distribution in marginalised communities, and the effects of Environmental Justice on food production and security.
