First Stakeholder Core Group Workshop

General information

This first workshop introduced the SUSFANS project with a special focus on the Work Package 1 ‘Conceptual framework and food and nutrition security (FNS) sustainability metrics’ and the Work Package 6 ‘Stakeholder interaction and scenario review’.

During 4 parallel working groups, experts actively reviewed, helped refine and provided feedback on:

  • the SUSFANS Conceptual Framework that serves as an overall project guide;
  • a set of metrics to assess the overall sustainability of the food system, balanced across the range of world views on the assessment of the environmental, social and economic dimensions of sustainable food;
  • case studies that will include a) proteins from livestock-fish supply chains and b) micronutrients from fruits and vegetables supply chains;
  • existing explorative scenarios, so as to identify their most salient features for exploring sustainable diets and food systems in the EU, within a global context of food security and climate change.

The next steps to be addressed during the 3 upcoming workshops will be explained during this first SCG workshop.
