Towards a common food policy for the European Union
A three-year participatory process of Deliberation, Research and Citizen Engagement
European citizens may choose the food they put into their shopping baskets, but they have not chosen the food systems that serve up that food. There is currently no EU ‘food policy’. Instead, the food we eat and the food system we enjoy are shaped by a variety of distinct policy ameworks: agriculture, food safety and public health, trade, environmental protection, climate and energy, economic and social cohesion, rural development and international development, employment and education.
