CONFERENCE: INNOVATIVE FOOD Unblocking Innovation — Towards “Food 2030” — Envisaging “Food 2050”

‘On the eve of the European Parliament’s 9th term, civil society engages with food policy instigating a debate on priorities and the food system’s capability to foster innovation. The challenges for Europe’s food security are daunting. The onslaught of climate change will soon be felt; environmental degradation currently pressures the food system. Diversification of food sources is mandatory in guaranteeing food security. The European Commission’s Directorate General “Research & Innovation” sketched an agenda “Food 2030”, while the Commission’s scientific adviser, the Joint Research Centre, considers priorities for “Food 2050”. What must be done in the next legislature 2019-2024 to tackle the manifold problems in the food chain?’
