Food systems that support transitions to healthy and sustainable diets

Info

FEAST aims to catalyse Europe’s just transition to a ‘Win-Win-Win-Win' food system that sees major gains for people, the planet, and the public and private sectors. Through HORIZON-CL6-2021-FARM2FORK-01-15 (Horizon Europe Project 101060536), we aim to support European food systems to shift away from the current ‘Lose-Lose-Lose-Win' food systems that sees only large food corporations ‘winning’ at the expense of enormous negative consequences for the environment, health and the public sector. FEAST aims to advance the state of the art by leveraging current best practice and co-designing novel solutions throughout Europe with food system stakeholders, including diverse vulnerable groups, to identify how they can be supported and empowered to facilitate and benefit from the just transition to healthier and more sustainable dietary behaviour – at all levels (micro, meso and macro) and in all sectors (producers, distributors, retailers and consumers) of the food system.

    En spændende torsdag i Guldborgsund Kommune: Præsentation af "Perspektiver på skolemad" for byrådet med efterfølgende politiske drøftelser. Som embedskvinde er det spændende at få lov at arbejde med ting, som er af betydning for samfundsudviklingen i det helt store perspektiv, og sådan et emne er skolemad. Det er nyt for os i Danmark (udenfor København og Århus), og giver helt naturligt anledning til mange overvejelser og spørgsmål. Personligt er jeg så glad for at Kommunen er med i EU Horizon projekt FEAST som Living Lab, så vi kan hente inspiration, erfaring og data fra andre lande. I New Zealand, fx, der iværksatte de skolemad nærmest fra den ene dag til den anden i 2019 (mener jeg det var), og havde nogle helt fantastiske, målbare effekter på folkesundheden ud af det. Forleden fik jeg tilsendt evalueringskonceptet for skolemad på Londons skoler. Man får en masse relevant viden fra de andre partnere, som krydsbestøver vores lokale arbejde og giver netværk, udsyn og perspektiv. Det er godt at have nogen at støtte sig til, for det er et stort emne, og heldigvis har vi, her i Danmark, Madkulturen og deres rejsehold, som rådgiver og støtter kommunerne i disse processer - tak for det!

    Our second FEAST Policy chat webinar wrapped up successfully! We would like to extend our thanks to Timothy Mark Lang, Anant Jani, and Molly D. Anderson for sharing their perspectives on alternatives to put the One Health agenda back in the light, something that is missing in the Draghi report. We would also like to thank Samuele Tonello and Sofia R. from EuroHealthNet for organizing the event, and to all the participants for making this Policy Chat a success! Those who missed this interesting talk, please watch the recording on our FEAST YouTube channel (link below 👇).   We have also uploaded the speakers’ presentation to FEAST’s Resources section.

    This week, Ursula von der Leyen unveiled the European Commission’s competitiveness compass, outlining its plans to steer Europe towards growth and innovation. In a recent FEAST Policy Chat we hosted along with open science for open societies - os4os, Samuele Tonello linked this drive for competitiveness to a crucial question: how did it gain so much momentum in Europe, and why is it vital for health sector representatives to resist surrendering to it?   Experts including Professor Tim Lang (City, University of London), Anant Jani (Heidelberg University), and Molly D. Anderson (Middlebury College) pointed out the potential challenges of this narrow focus—especially for Europe’s fragile food systems.   So, what were our key takeaways? 🗨️ Tim Lang: climate change and geopolitical conflict increasingly turn food into a tool of control. Fragile global chokepoints for essentials such as soy, wheat, and maize put Europe at constant risk. 🗨 Anant Jani: sustainable, healthy food must be accessible to everyone—not just privileged consumers. 🗨 Molly Anderson: Europe must rethink urbanisation and strengthen rural producer-consumer connections.   This fixation on market competition with the US and China distracts from more pressing issues:   🥕 Alternatives matter. Should resilience, not competitiveness, guide our future? 🌱 Food democracy goes beyond consumer choice—it requires active citizenship and community engagement. 🥗 Future-proofing food systems demands decentralisation, reduced corporate dominance, and stronger local ties.   👉We weren’t part of the Draghi process—but it’s time we claimed a seat at the table. Europe’s future should prioritise feeding all people well, fostering resilient systems, and safeguarding democracy—not just chasing global competitiveness.   Missed it? No problem.

    Join our second Policy Chat webinar “Beyond competitiveness: rethinking the ideologies shaping our food systems” designed around a critical question “Is the EU's focus on competitive framework the right path forward?”   The Draghi report has sparked a major shift in EU priorities, focusing on boosting competitiveness to close productivity gaps with global competitors like the US and China. While this direction incorporates environmental sustainability with a focus on decarbonisation, health—viewed through the lens of One Health—has taken a backseat.   Yet, with climate change a daily reality and food systems influencing both human and environmental health, we must ask: Is this narrow focus on productivity growth enough for Europe’s future?   As we all contribute to shaping the future together, we must dare to ask hard questions and envision bold alternatives.   Click below to register and participate in this thought-provoking discussion organized by Samuele Tonello and Sofia Romagosa at EuroHealthNet   When: 28th January 2025, 14:00 to 16:00 pm (CEST) Where: Online Speakers: Molly D.

    Meet the authors of Ireland's #first Business Impact Assessment on Obesity and Population-level Nutrition and the Business Impact Assessment on Sustainability report! As a part of the FEAST project, The School of Public Health UCC’s researchers, Margaret Steele and Janas Harrington, published a report on “Food companies' commitments on population nutrition, health, and sustainability in Ireland”. The report was launched at a public event in December 2024, sparking conversations about the role of the food industry in shaping healthier and more sustainable food environments.   The report summarizes a detailed assessment of companies based in Ireland, categorized into three industry sectors: food and non-alcoholic beverage manufacturers, supermarkets and quick-service restaurants.   Get insights into: ➡️ How these companies influence our food choices, ➡️ An assessment of these companies’ commitments to nutrition, health, and sustainability, and ➡️ Clear, actionable recommendations for driving positive change in Ireland’s food system.

    At the heart of society’s organised efforts to prevent disease and protect the health and wellbeing of the population.

    Ireland’s food industry falls short on health and sustainability goals Ireland’s food industry could be part of the solution to the health and sustainability crisis in our food system, but are trailing international counterparts, according to a report published by researchers at University College Cork’s (UCC) School of Public Health. UCC researchers examined statements 35 companies make publicly, for example on their websites or in their annual reports, relating to product formulation, nutrition labelling, and marketing for the nutrition assessment. In the sustainability assessment, the focus is on statements relating to factors such as emissions, packaging, food waste, water use, and product portfolio. The results are contained in Ireland’s first ever report on Business Impact Assessment (BIA) on Obesity and Population-level Nutrition and Business Impact Assessment on Sustainability. Visit https://lnkd.in/e46ejnBB to find out more. Dr Janas Harrington, Senior Lecturer and principal investigator of the Food Policy Research Team at UCC’s School of Public Health said: "Unhealthy diets pose a growing threat to population health and to our environments, with increased consumption of high fat, salt and sugar foods leading to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. If we want to reverse these trends, we have to ensure that everybody in Ireland has the opportunity to choose a tasty, wholesome, healthy diet that does not harm the environment." Dr Margaret Steele, who led the data collection for the study, says that, while companies can do more, so can government. "Currently, large global corporations have a disproportionate influence on food policy in Ireland and around the world. In certain key respects, everyone is forced to play the game by their rules, including local retailers, producers and other companies who might wish to do things differently. Government can begin to level the playing field between smaller Irish-owned companies and huge global competitors by setting legally binding requirements around things like advertising and nutrition labelling."

    Wishing the LinkedIn Family a Joyful Christmas! - Team FEAST   Maybe never, but during festivities, we tend to deviate from eating healthy and sustainably. We prepare more than required, we eat more than needed, and we waste much more than usual. (Food waste increases by 30% to 50% in many European countries during Christmas compared to other times of the year!)   So, this festive season, we can do our bit to save us and the planet by: -       Preparing a shopping list to avoid over-purchasing and food waste. -       Consuming healthy yet delicious meals in smaller portions. -       Storing food appropriately and consuming leftovers -       Sharing food with those in need by collaborating with local food assistance charities such as food banks.   Let’s celebrate the relevance of healthy, delicious, and sustainable food.   Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to everyone in this amazing community!   #feast2030 #Sharing #SaveFood

    Merry X-Mas
