Abstract

The potential of social interface in agricultural innovation remains masked by extension service agencies. This review collected and studied scattered knowledge generated literature on the role of social innovation in inclusive transformation of agri- food system highlighting on preproduction, production, supply chain and consumption. Search engines; namely google scholar; Science Direct, JSTOR, Directory of Open Access Journals and Scopus were utilized to identify the articles and relevant literatures. The review provides a state of the art on knowledge related to social innovations and inclusive transformation of agri-food system. The findings show that social innovation is becoming a prevalent tool to expedite inclusive transformation of food systems in Nepal. However, there are no clear considerations on social innovations in inclusive transformation of food and agriculture system. To provision these considerations, significance of social innovations for inclusive transformation was well explored for further analysis and conclusion. This review enhances the gaining of insights into the theories and findings of past works related to social innovation, inclusiveness, food system transformation and policies which contributed to develop a strong framework of inclusive transformation of food system from social innovation perspective.
