Multi-actor network to boost short food supply chains across Europe

EU4Advice is a multi-actor project funded under the topic HORIZON-CL6-2021-GOVERNANCE-01-27. with 21 partners from 13 European countries. The main project goal is settling the foundations and structures required to ensure effective capacity building of SFSC through effective knowledge transfer.

Eu4Advice targets the most important goals from the Farm2Fork Strategy  to promote more sustainable and empowering SFSC models, which constitute a promising and emerging alternative to globalized food systems with the potential of reducing environmental footprint and enhancing competitiveness of the agri-food system.

Objectives of the project:

1. Identify and characterize short food supply chain (SFSC) advisors across Europe
2. Connect SFSC advisors from the 27 member states (MS) in a European network
3. Improve understanding of the main issues and challenges of European Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS)
4. Integrate SFSC advisors and contents into national AKIS
5. Interact with relevant nationa, regional & local policy-makers
