FutureFoodS’ pre-announcement for funding and a brand-new website

The FutureFoodS Partnership (launched in June 2024) aims to secure a sustainable and resilient food future for Europe through research and innovation. The partnership unites experts from 29 EU countries to address climate change, biodiversity, and food security. The goal is to reduce the environmental impact of food production, improve public health, and ensure the economic stability of the food supply chains from farm to fork.  

A Call for Change 

To address above mentioned objectives, FutureFoodS will launch calls for funding: the first one has just been pre-announced. It will consist of 3 topics:  

1. The way towards sustainable and resilient food systems – Reshaping food system interactions  

1. New foods – Fostering innovations in food design, processing, and supply via demand and supply reorientation  

1. Empowering sustainable food choices – Enabling environments and dietary shifts 

The first call is expected to open at the end of October 2024! FutureFoodS will continue opening calls over the next decade to support transnational research projects aimed at transforming food systems at national, European and global levels. 

Over the past two years, FOODPathS has been laying the groundwork for the FutureFoodS partnership and creating the right environment for this European initiative to grow and address key issues within food systems.
