3rd Workshop Nutritional Security Working Group

Plant-based foods have received remarkable attention during recent decades in nutrition research, due to the biological activities recognized for many classes of phytochemicals and the relevance that food nutritional security topics are finding in European countries. The availability and accessibility to nutritionally-rich food sources are hallmarks for human health and wellbeing. That is why many efforts are being directed towards both traditional and new crops.

The meeting intends to increase collaborations between the working group members both bi-and multi-lateral. In addition, it will provide information to finalise the EPSO statement on Nutritional Security, including recommendations on R&I as science advice to policy to the European Commission as well as national authorities.

The workshop will be carried out as a hybrid event. To participate online, please register at https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/7690122 185825291280
