This work evaluates the structure, links and general indicators of the formation of an Academic Network through inductive projects of Food and Nutrition Sovereignty and Security that were developed in Brazil in the period from 2013 to 2016. The basic principles of the Social Network Analysis method were embraced to understand the interactions between the participating institutions of the projects. The results showed that the southeast and south regions gathered the highest number of projects, exposing a characteristic distribution of academic production in these areas of knowledge. The network analysis revealed a growing density of organizations where many countries joined incrementally, meaning that new members found it easy to connect to the network. The centralization further revealed the connection of the network, during the analyzed period, was clearly connected thanks to the central role played by the technical-executive coordination at the governmental level supported by an academic institution. Thus, this centralized network based on the shared coordination between the government and the academy was able to articulate national and international scientific community, public managers, civil society, with significant results in the academic field and public policies in food and nutrition security.
