Research and innovation policy for future-proofing the food system : Deliverable 4.3
To solve the grand challenges related to food production and consumption, breakthroughs are needed in research and innovation (R&I) that foster changes in the entire food system, targeting not only the food production chain, but also the social, political, economic and environmental aspects related to it.5, 6,7,8 In order to realise the needed breakthroughs, European and regional funding systems for R&I need revision. This paper argues the need for three revisions: to include research topics regarding food system innovation on the research agenda, to foster responsible R&I and to add to public R&I funding institutions the task of acting as ‘innovation brokers’
