"Schools should be seen as the biggest restaurants in town", says Amalia, coordinator of #SF4C, at the #OpenFoodConference 🇧🇪. "In their spaces + in the school environment, children can become agents of change, supporting a shift towards #healthydiets on a broader societal level"

#EU2024BE's #OpenFoodConference ignited crucial ideas about reshaping our #FoodSystems.💡
Addressing scale, private investment, cross-value chain collaboration & innovative practices are key to funding this shift towards #FoodSystemTransformation👉 https://t.co/CwT1QNvsEO

On behalf of the Brussels office @BahaiBIC, I was very happy to attend the #OpenFoodConference hosted by @EU2024BE. A wide array of topics were explored, ranging from the diversity of smallholder farmer experience to the value of youth engagement in farming roles.

It's day 3 at the #OpenFoodConference 🇪🇺 @EU2024BE! @xAlan_Matthews has opened discussions by demonstrating just how unbalanced EU subsidies are - hugely benefitting larger-scale farms. Moreover, he emphasises the crucial need to reduce our meat consumption.⚠️

Day 3 of #openfoodconference has just started. Now time for the key note starter on food, farmers, society and connections. #EU2024BE #EU2024Flanders @Departement_EWI @Flanders_DFA

The #OpenFoodConference in Leuven put the spotlight on #alternativeproteins as part of the solution to build more sustainable food systems.
During the session "Strategies for protein diversification", the key messages were: promoting innovation for protein diversification and providing opportunities for different actors in the food supply chain; developing more education, research and up-scaling on alternative proteins; and coordination and dialogue between decision makers.
Precision fermentation, cultured meat and plant-based products are increasingly being recognised in government strategies to reboot our food system, while providing consumers with delicious and nutritious products, using less land and protecting our environment.
Thanks to the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2024 for organising this important event, which will help to open dialogue and encourage cooperation between the various stakeholders on the issue of protein diversification.

Current food systems are harmful for farmers, nature, health and food security.
But they needn't be...💡
Today EEB's Sec-Gen @tenBrinkPatrick spoke at the #OpenFoodConference stressing why a shift to #SustainableFoodSystems must be a priority under the next @EU_Commission 👇🧵

The upcoming #EUelections2024 and the next #CAP discussion are an appeal to policymakers to ensure the implementation of #sustainable social conditionality and to make use of #truecost accounting to transform #food and #farming systems towards #agroecology.
#OpenFoodConference

A way forward for the #transformation of #EU #agriculture is inviting #agroecological organisations to the #negotiation table remembering that these organisations cannot match the funding and resources of bigger players.
#OpenFoodConference #agroecology

Takeaways from the #OpenFoodConference:
In #Belgium, the Wallon Ministry of Environment spent 41% of its budget on #agroecology, while the Ministry of #Agriculture spent only 8%.
At the #EU level, the elephant in the room is the #CAP.

#OpenFoodConference IBMA reprensentative J.Klapwijk @Koppert : #biocontrol solutions 🔑 role in all kind of #agriculture programmes,used effectively since decades,ensuring production for #farmers & #consumers And many more to come with quicker access #foodsecurity #sustainability
