With the Farm to Fork Strategy, the EU made great strides toward implementing a true #FoodSystems approach.
Sadly, progress has stalled. This new @fao.org report is a timely reminder of why it matters — and how to get back on track! 💪
#ThinkFoodSystems
And the EU could do even better if “agriculture, which remains the only sector without its own emissions targets, [weren’t] the “elephant in the room””…
If we #ThinkFoodSystems, we can design a #FoodSystem transition grounded in agroecology that works for farmers, citizens, and #climate! 🌍
Whilst informing people about lifestyles and cancer risk is necessary, what we need is to create a healthier society — including healthier #FoodEnvironments — where cancer risk factors (such as poor diets) are less likely to develop in the first place. #EWAC2025 #GoodFood4EU #ThinkFoodSystems
"The success of the agroecological transition in livestock farming is not limited to technical adjustments: it requires a systemic vision and a long-term commitment from all local players."
🙌Indeed! And that's why we'll keep urging policymakers to #ThinkFoodSystems!
The @europarl.europa.eu Public Health Cttee will work on the implementation of EU Beating Cancer Plan and the upcoming Cardiovascular Health Plan.
A not-to-be-missed opportunity to address #FoodEnvironments & commercial determinants of poor diets!

🤔What can the EU do to promote fair #FoodEnvironments?
😫Not much, if you read #EUAgriVision...
💡Yet in fact, there's *a lot* the EU could do, starting with facilitating best practice exchange amongst EU countries and presenting an EU Action Plan for Plant-Based Foods.
#ThinkFoodSystems
We couldn’t agree more with the concluding thoughts shared by participants at today’s #EUAgriVision conference: we need to #ThinkFoodSystems and to talk about farming and *FOOD*.

👨🌾🤝🍽️The demand and supply sides of the agri-food system are interdependent. Action is required on both sides to enable an agroecological transition in the EU.
It's time to do away with siloed policymaking leading to policy incoherence and instead to #ThinkFoodSystems!
#EUAgriVision
The EU Vision for Agriculture and Food has too many blind spots. A #FoodSystems lens sees the whole picture and maximises our ability to achieve multiple goals, from decent livelihoods for farmers and fishers to affordable healthy diets for people on a thriving 🌍
#ThinkFoodSystems #EUAgriVision
Today, the @ec.europa.eu is hosting an event on EU farming
Yet, food systems are not part of the discussion
We risk making our policies narrow & unable to ensure decent livelihoods for ALL farmers & affordable, healthy diets 4 people on a thriving 🌍
The EU must #ThinkFoodSystems!

What does a #FoodSystems approach do?
✔️It makes impacts visible
💡It creates space for joined-up thinking
🤲And it delivers answers that work for all, from local to global.

🙈 @christophehansen.bsky.social’s #EUAgriVision event is today: but the Vision has too many blind spots.
🌍 #FoodSystems isn’t a buzzword. It’s an approach connecting farming, fishing, #AnimalWelfare, food, climate, health… and more.
🇪🇺 It’s what EU citizens need—urgently.

@christophehansen.bsky.social : The EU’s Agri & Food Vision misses key pieces. The demand and supply sides of the agri-food system are interdependent!
A #FoodSystems approach connects the dots—from fair farmer incomes to healthy, affordable diets and a thriving 🌍.
#ThinkFoodSystems #EUAgriVision
Today, the @ec.europa.eu is hosting an event centered around the theme of “Shaping the future of farming and the agri-food sector”. But what about the #FutureOfFood as a whole?

Interesting take by @eesc.bsky.social’s P. Schmidt: “The #EUAgriVision is vague and it’s a good thing, as we can have a dialogue” on how to shape it.
Then let’s hope @ec.europa.eu gets it right and finally start to #ThinkFoodSystems, also looking at the demand side!

To enable an agroecological transition (ecologically and socially sustainable farming) action is required at both the demand and supply sides of the agri-food system

Let's connect the dots, shape coherent policies and #ThinkFoodSystems!

Packed room at #EUAgriVision conference today. Strong focus on the farm level so far in speeches by @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu and @christophehansen.bsky.social, with little attention paid to the rest of the food chain. Yet we need to #ThinkFoodSystems…
