FutureFoodS - European partnership for a sustainable Future of Food Systems
The vision of FutureFoodS is to collectively achieve
environmentally-friendly, socially secure, fair and economically viable healthy
and safe Food Systems (FS) for Europe. FutureFoodS gather 87 partners from 22
EU Member States, 6 Associated Countries and 1 third country. FutureFoodS
includes public and private actors, policy makers, foundations, locally,
sub-nationally, nationally, EU-widely. All these FutureFoodS partners are fully
aligned on the vision for the Partnership and the methodology for its
implementation in line with SDG17 and EU Green Deal components.
This vision has been broken down into general (GO), specific
(SO) and operational (OO) objectives applying across the 4 R&I areas and 4
transversal activities identified by the FutureFoods consortium in its stable
draft Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) which constitutes the
strategic backbone of the project. The four GO cover: GO1 - Functioning of FS;
GO2 - System approaches; GO3 - Inclusive government; GO4 - Co-creation cases. These
GO have then been translated into SO prioritised in line with the timescale and
resources of the Partnership: SO1 - Change the way we eat; SO2- Change the way
we process and supply food, SO3 - Change the way we connect with FSs and SO4 -
Change the way we govern FS.
In addition, 6 interconnected OO have been set: OO1- Pooling
R&I resources and programming; OO2 - Operational FS Observatory; OO3 -
Active FS knowledge Hub of FS Labs; OO4 - Functioning knowledge sharing and
scaling mechanisms; OO5- Revisiting the SRIA; OO6 - Promoting, supporting,
widening & gathering FS various communities.
The objectives implemented in the 8 WPs of FutureFoodS will exert impact
directly or indirectly in most of the destinations of Horizon Europe’s Cluster
6 2023-2024 work programme and particularly for the topic destination ‘Fair,
healthy and environment-friendly FS from primary production to consumption’
echoing to the main EU and World FS policies & strategies.
