4.2 Implementing and monitoring transformative actions Transformative actions, which have been jointly defined through democratic deliberation, are an important expected outcome of the workshop. These actions should aim to transform the food system towards greater sustainability and to involve the stakeholders in the transformation process. Overall, your workshop should help to build the basis for such transformative actions, bringing together all actors in identifying, developing, and implementing the corresponding changes. Figures 7–10 depict key moments from transformative actions carried out in our projects. Depending on the activities envisaged, implementation and monitoring of the transformative actions can be time intensive. Monitoring can help to follow up on implementation and reorganize things where necessary. It is important to facilitate ongoing communication and exchange between different actors, including outside projects and government institutions that are likely to support the transformation.
