Policy experts’ meeting

This policy experts’ discussion meeting was convened by the Group of Chief Scientific Advisors to discuss with policy experts relevant to policy work towards a sustainable food system.

Policy experts from the European Commission and specialised agencies participated in the meeting.

The objective was to present scientific evidence gathered and synthesised so far to

1) hear views on its coverage, level of detail and policy relevance; and

2) already inform the development of the ‘Farm to Fork Strategy’, a key aspect of the European Green Deal, at an early phase.

Additional aims were to elaborate on further scientific advice needs of policy makers and to exchange updates and information on relevant reports and policy initiatives.
