Call A new recipe for the food system - building innovation platforms for a sustainable food system

Purpose and goal

The system for our food supply is faltering and a whole new way of co-creation, mobilization and action is needed to build a socially, economically and environmentally resilient and sustainable food system. Together, we will create a system-transforming and inclusive innovation platform with a focus on a diversity of local food producers, a more efficient distribution of resources, an increased degree of self-sufficiency and a spread of risks where everyone in Sweden can contribute to and take part in sustainably produced, sustainably distributed and sustainably consumed food.

Expected effects and result

By mobilizing for the innovation of civil society and the innovation of small entrepreneurs, our innovation platform shall contribute to a good local food supply and crisis preparedness, local, sustainable and resource-sharing food creation by a diversity of actors, shorter food chains and transport routes through cooperation and collaboration. Well-functioning local food production is a proven effective way to reduce malnutrition, hunger and poverty and increases resilience in the event of war and crises.

Planned approach and implementation

Establish the innovation platform - core team and collaboration partners with expertise in relevant/crucial areas. Deepen and develop the mission to ensure common objective based on a common and clear problem analysis. Inventory, mapping and analysis. Coordination and Mobilization internally, externally, nationally and internationally, carry out communication activities. Develop and anchor system-transforming innovation ideas.
