Abstract：
Motivated by the evolving global food landscape and its detrimental impacts on society, the environment, and health, this research aims to understand consumer perceptions, preferences and involvement regarding sustainable food products and consumption practices. To this aim, three countries were chosen for their distinct economic, cultural, and demographic differences (Spain, Türkiye, and Colombia), enabling an exploration of how these factors influence sustainability perceptions. The results show high levels of awareness, knowledge, consumption, and willingness to switch to more sustainable habits, although differences between countries were also found (price sensitivity in Spain and demand for information regarding sustainable food in Colombia). In addition, a group of consumers has been identified that is influenced by health, shows positive behaviours and perceptions towards sustainable food, and is not price sensitive. The study is significant, as it addresses the information gap between consumers, producers, and policymakers regarding sustainable food awareness. It seeks to provide insights into cultural influences on sustainability perceptions and aims to assist in developing educational programs and policies to promote sustainable consumption.
摘要：
受不断变化的全球食品格局及其对社会的不利影响的激励，环境,和健康，这项研究旨在了解消费者的看法，对可持续食品和消费实践的偏好和参与。为了这个目标,三个国家因其独特的经济而被选中，文化,和人口差异(西班牙，蒂尔基耶,和哥伦比亚)，探索这些因素如何影响可持续性观念。结果显示了较高的认识水平,知识,消费,并愿意转向更可持续的习惯，尽管也发现了国家之间的差异（西班牙的价格敏感性和哥伦比亚对可持续粮食信息的需求）。此外,已经确定了一组受健康影响的消费者，表现出对可持续食品的积极行为和看法，对价格不敏感。这项研究意义重大，因为它解决了消费者之间的信息差距，生产者,和政策制定者关于可持续食品意识。它旨在提供对可持续发展观念的文化影响的见解，并旨在协助制定教育计划和政策以促进可持续消费。
