EU4Advice

The Network of Advisors in Short Food Supply Chains across Europe.

EU4Advice = AKIS + Multiactor Network

EU4Advice works to create a network of SFSC advisors, policy-makers, researchers, and farmers, working together towards the effective organizational set-up of the AKIS.

EU4Advice targets the most important goals from the Farm2Fork Strategy, as it is intended to promote more sustainable and empowering SFSC models, which constitute a promising and emerging sustainable alternative to globalized food systems. These models have strong potential to empower both producers and consumers while, at the same time, reducing the environmental footprint and enhancing the competitiveness of the agri-food system.


Major Objectives

The EU4Advice project aims to establish a robust network of Short Food Supply Chain (SFSC) advisors, policymakers, researchers, and farmers across Europe. Its primary goal is to strengthen the Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) by integrating SFSC advisors into national frameworks. By doing so, EU4Advice seeks to promote sustainable and empowering SFSC models, aligning with the objectives of the Farm to Fork Strategy.
