Observa organizes the first scenario workshop on research programming on food & health. The workshop will be held in Rome (Italy) on Tuesday, October 23rd, 2012.
This event will be realized through the project INPROFOOD funded by the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union. The project aims at bringing together civil society, academia and business to improve food and health research by identifying socially inclusive solutions.
The workshop will gather scientists, policy makers, and representatives of non-profit organisations and business associations to discuss research programming in the area of food & health in Italy and co-create scenarios of desirable future programming. Participants of the event will have the opportunity to exchange their opinions and develop alternative scenarios in an informal atmosphere. They will be able to contribute their experiences, make suggestions and raise concerns, as well as identify barriers or suggest solutions so that research programming better addresses societal interests.
