2 The overarching goal of Susfood is to maximise the contribution of research to the development of food systems aiming at more sustainability from production to consumption SUSFOOD An FP7 ERA-NET, 2012-2014

3 A large European partnership AAAAA

4 A food system that supports food security makes optimal use of natural and human resources respects biodiversity and ecosystems for present and future generations which is culturally acceptable and accessible environmentally sound economically fair and viable and which provides the consumer with nutritionally adequate, safe, healthy and affordable food The ERA-Net SUSFOOD defines sustainability in the food area

5 A main focus on food chain sustainability beyond the farm gate

6 External Advisory Group (24 advisors) NGOs: consumer (BEUC), environment (BEE) ERANETS : exchanges with the Platform Era-Net (ARD, Safe-food era, ETB Pro, Core Organic, Ruragri, Fisheries, ICT Agri) JPIs Facce, Healthy Diet for a healthy life, Oceans ETP food for life (key-trust « sustainable & ethical food production »), Plants for the future, TP Organic FP7 Projects: FAHRE, FUSION, Food Manufuture, SENSE Experts from SCAR (not members of Susfood), KBBE net and JRC-IHCP Industries (Food and Drink Europe, Eurocommerce) EUREKA/Euro Agri Food Chain Research associations (Food Force, EuropaBio, Marine Stewardship Council) IDDRI JRCs (IRMM Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements ) A group built to gather various stakeholder profiles for reflecting upon Susfood priorities and output

7  An open web based archive, developed in the ICT-AGRI ERA-Net  which will give an overview of the existing research  freely accessible 2 levels of mapping Research funding structures, operators and infrastructures in each partner country  Data from partners and policy makers - Research programmes (national, regional, interregional)  Data from partners and policy makers - Research projects  Data provided by the R&D actors (researchers, SMEs) Therefore we encourage researchers from universities, research institutes and industries to post their research projects in the MKB at http://susfood-db-era.net/drupal/ http://susfood-db-era.net/drupal/ Mapping Research & identifying needs using a Meta Knowledge Base (MKB)

8 Priority research areas and cross-cutting issues 2: Interdisciplinary research approach to innovative functional design of food products and support for registration of novel products 3: Redesign input, waste and side flow strategies to increase resource efficiency and provide added value in food processing, manufacture etc. 4: Harmonization of the methods and metrics for integrated assessment of sustainability of food products and food patterns 5: Innovation in food processing technologies: flexible and innovative processes and automation techniques 6: Connection between stakeholders of food system 7: Shaping consumer behavior and food choice 8: Integration of information systems for personalized and sustainable choices CC1: Equity and ethics in food production and consumption and access for consumers to a variety of products CC2: Localization of activities (production, transformation, retail), and internalizing external costs of food to optimize environmental, health and social impact and economic efficiency 1: Policy coherence and alternative business strategies to make sustainable food an easy choice for consumers

9 1.Improving input, waste and side flow strategies to increase resource efficiency and provide added value in food products and food processing, manufacture, reducing input (energy, water etc.) in the food chain 2.Innovation in food processing technologies and food products to support a sustainable food chain 3.Understanding consumer behaviour to encourage more sustainable food choices First Call: Selected key topics  98 submitted pre-proposals
