Research

Our project examines how increasing the diversity of species on fields and on farms, diversity of products in markets, diversity of policies concerning food and diversity of meals on our plate can help us to create more sustainable food systems and gain higher level of food security.

Food governance

We explore the different governmental policy interventions as well as citizens' and movements' local demand for organic food to foster sustainable food systems.

Food chains

We examine the drivers and barriers to increase the use of biologically diverse products in different food supply chains.

Food culture

We explore synergies and trade-offs between diversity and sustainability, including diets which are healthy, fair and accessible to all.

The project was co-financed by the NCBR, BMEL, MIPAAF, RCN and DEFRA within the framework of ERA-NET SUSFOOD and ERA-NET CORE Organic Cofund Joint Call program
