COMENSAL Consortium Scientific Missions Food Sustainability: for a healthy, sustainable and fair food environment for Asturias

The objective of this Scientific Mission is to activate relations between the agents of the Asturian agri-food system to collectively face the challenge of food sustainability. The COMENSAL Consortium, using this term to refer to shared food, will generate links between the agents of the agri-food system in the region in a double dimension: on the one hand, offering signs of raising awareness among all the agents through the demonstration of good practices food sustainability in their usual activities; and on the other hand, getting collectively involved in the elaboration of sustainable food guides for the productive sector, industry, distribution, restaurants and homes.
To achieve this objective, there is a multidisciplinary scientific team that will address the diagnosis of food sustainability from different points of view: from agricultural and environmental technologies, from the social and cultural perspective, from the field of health; from a legal and economic perspective. Good sustainable practices will be shown by agents from the agri-food sector with the participation of significant companies from the Asturias agri-food chain.
