SUSFANS supports the knowledge hub

SUSFANS promotes the uptake and spread of its achievements. So what do we do? We deliver our methods and protocol in the open domain. We contribute to the participatory process of research prioritisation in European cities and countries under FIT4FOOD2030. We work with the Food, Nutrition and Health Research Infrastructure (FNH-RI).

State of play in the SUSFANS project

SUSFANS focuses on a number of core questions: How can we improve the food system of the EU, especially from the perspective of social, environmental and economic sustainability? How can we balance and encompass different views on balanced consumer diets and food and nutrition security in the EU? A lot of progress has been made.

2017 - An important year for SUSFANS

2017 has been an important and proaductive year for SUSFANS. Not only did we complete a long trajectory of developing metrics for sustainable food and nutrition security, we also assessed consumer diets in selected European countries against a common food-based dietary guideline.

Visions for sustainable food and nutrition security in Europe

How can we improve the food system in the EU, especially from the perspective of social, environmental and economic sustainability? How can we balance and encompass views on how to strengthen food and nutrition security in the EU?

These are the core questions of the SUSFANS project. SUSFANS’ overall goal is to come to a better food and nutrition system for human health, the environment and corporate enterprises in Europe.
