Showcasing BRESOV at the FOOD 2030 conference
BRESOV was represented by project partner ESA (European Seed Association) at the FOOD 2030 conference. The Bulgarian Presidency of the European Council organised the 2nd FOOD 2030 High Level Event as a Flagship Conference from June 14-15, 2018 in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The event was dedicated to research and innovation (R&I) as a driver of food systems transformation, such that our food systems become sustainable, resilient, responsible, diverse and competitive.
The conference programme featured plenaries with keynote speakers, parallel breakout sessions with interactive panel debates, a cultural performance and an exhibition space showcasing innovative research initiatives, networks, start-ups and sustainable food technologies.
The high level event provided a platform for dialogue, feedback and recommendations for policy makers and funders, researchers and educators, the private sector as well as civil society towards:
- Understanding the complexity of food systems and implications for R&I
- Building R&I ecosystems and place-based solutions to support food systems transformation,
- Strengthening R&I alignment and investments through better governance
- Boosting future investments in R&I in Europe, leverage private investments and increase synergies with public funding
- Identifying how, who and what R&I in needed to transform our food systems
