  abstract = {{O}bjective: {T}o identify factors influencing dietary behaviours in urban food environments in {A}frica and identify areas for future research. {D}esign: {W}e systematically reviewed published/grey literature (protocol {CRD}4201706893). {F}indings were compiled into a map using a socio-ecological model on four environmental levels: individual, social, physical and macro. {S}etting: {U}rban food environments in {A}frica. {P}articipants: {S}tudies involving adolescents and adults (11-70 years, male/female). {R}esults: {T}hirty-nine studies were included (six adolescent, fifteen adolescent/adult combined and eighteen adult). {Q}uantitative methods were most common (twenty-eight quantitative, nine qualitative and two mixed methods). {S}tudies were from fifteen {A}frican countries. {S}eventy-seven factors influencing dietary behaviours were identified, with two-thirds at the individual level (45/77). {F}actors in the social (11/77), physical (12/77) and macro (9/77) environments were investigated less. {I}ndividual-level factors that specifically emerged for adolescents included self-esteem, body satisfaction, dieting, spoken language, school attendance, gender, body composition, pubertal development, {BMI} and fat mass. {S}tudies involving adolescents investigated social environment-level factors more, for example, sharing food with friends. {T}he physical food environment was more commonly explored in adults, for example, convenience/availability of food. {M}acro-level factors associated with dietary behaviours were food/drink advertising, religion and food prices. {F}actors associated with dietary behaviour were broadly similar for men and women. {C}onclusions: {T}he dominance of studies exploring



individual-level factors suggests a need for research to explore how social, physical and macro-level environments drive dietary behaviours of adolescents and adults in urban {A}frica. {M}ore studies are needed for adolescents and men, and studies widening the geographical scope



to encompass all {A}frican countries.},
