Funding for food system activity for SLU staff

Health and well-managed food system is important for sustainable future. Food system includes entire range of actors and their value-adding activities, which involve in the production,  aggregation, processing,  distribution,  consumption  and  disposal  of  food  products. Your proposal can touch upon any aspects of food system, such as food supply chains, food environments, consumer behaviour, diet, nutrition/health outcomes, and impacts of food system toward environment/economic and society. To align with SLU Global and SIANI's work, we would to like to encourage the seminar's organiser to focus the content on developing countries.

We encourage you to include actors beyond academics, for example NGO’s, civil society and private companies. The event could be held here at SLU Uppsala, Umeå, Alnarp, or somewhere else (at Sida, for example).

Please briefly describe expected outcomes from the event. The outcomes may include policy brief, a news article in one of the local newspapers, a journal article, a research application etc.
