The FutureFoodS Partnership aims to drive the transition of European food chains toward circular food systems that operate within planetary boundaries.
The initiative focuses on mobilizing research, innovation, and collaboration among diverse stakeholders to address the pressing challenges that make current food systems unsustainable.
The first FutureFoodS call for proposals has been recently launched. It encourages projects to adopt a food systems approach, leveraging interdisciplinary knowledge and engaging a broad range of actors to design transformative solutions. Proposals must focus on one of three themes:
- Sustainable and resilient food systems
- New foods – Innovations in food design, processing, and supply
- Empowering sustainable food choices – Enabling shifts in food environments and diets
Participants from 19 countries are eligible to apply. Information on the eligibility criteria, submission and evaluation procedures, and funding modalities is available on the website of the Partnership: www.futurefoodspartnership.eu/
