The objectives of this first Dialogue are:

Ensuring a deeper understanding of the interconnections and interdependences within Mediterranean food systems at every stage (from production, processing, distribution, marketing to the consumption of food, including food waste), based on consolidated scientific evidence and local knowledge;
Catalysing joint action, using the Mediterranean Diet as lever to improve the sustainability and resilience of Mediterranean food systems, by bridging Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP);
Engaging a wide network of food systems stakeholders within the broader frameworks of green, blue and circular economy, to design future scenarios of sustainable food systems in the Mediterranean region.

The Official Feedback Form is available at this link.

Among potential means of implementation that could be instrumental in transforming food systems is the Mediterranean diet, emerging as a powerful lever for bridging food consumption and production to accelerate food systems transformation in the whole Mediterranean region.
