The EU Food and Farming Forum was an event whereby key food system actors from across Europe came together to co-construct a set of policy proposals addressed to the EU for a comprehensive ‘Common Food Policy’. Taking place symbolically one year before the 2019 EU elections, the Forum yielded concrete proposals to be taken up by political parties, campaign groups and ultimately by the EU institutions.
Extract of the programme:Building Integrated Food Policies at the National Level
Lessons learned from Canada's National Food Policy process, the UK's People's Food Policy and the Dutch Transition Coalition. What can we learn from efforts to create integrated food policies at the national level? How did these processes take place? What were their successes and setbacks? Why adopt an integrated food policy approach at the national level?
