Citizen-driven transformation of EU food systems, FoodSHIFT2030 policy conference

Citizen-driven transformation of EU food systems is the title of FoodSHIFT2030’s final policy conference. As IFOAM Organics Europe, we host this event and organise it together with TP Organics as part of their annual Organic Innovation Days. Join us for an inspiring event in which we will explore the path to sustainable food systems! 

📆 26 October 2023, 9:00-18:00 
📍 The Herman Teirlinck Building, Brussels 
➡️ Register now 

We are planning an engaging day with presentations, four panel debates and a reception where you can meet the FoodSHIFT Accelerator Labs (FALs) while enjoying food, drinks and sparkling conversations.  

Our panels will discuss: 

  • Governing the food system transition; 
  • Empowering the citizens, participatory methods towards food system transformation; 
  • More plant-based food and organic livestock production – dichotomy or harmony?; 
  • How can future city regions activate and implement food system transformation? – Experienced based observations. 

More information and the full agenda are available on the FoodSHIFT website.  

🥙 Lunch, snacks during the breaks and finger food during the extended reception will be provided by SLURPS

We hope to celebrate the Final Policy Conference of FoodSHIFT 2030 with you and your friends! 

More information

FoodSHIFT2030 has, since its inception in 2020, been working toward an ambitious, citizen-driven transition of Europe’s food system to a low carbon, circular future. This Horizon 2020 project is promoting food systems innovations, starting in nine major cities across Europe and spreading out to fellow cities. Maybe there is one near you!  More information about the nine FALs and their associated Enabler Labs (FELs) is available on the FoodSHIFT2030 website.  

IFOAM Organics Europe contributes to the conceptual framework for further development of governance strategies and food policy strategies. We also disseminated project outputs within the organic network and at our main events.
