FEAST (Food systems that support transitions to hEalthy And Sustainable dieTs) aims to support the EU's just transition to healthy diets produced by sustainable food systems. Using a Multi-Actor Approach, FEAST will leverage current best practice and co-design novel solutions with EU food system stakeholders, including diverse vulnerable groups, to identify how they can be supported and empowered to facilitate and benefit from the transition ...

Food system transition will require changing dietary habits of millions of Europeans. PLAN’EAT aims at advancing the scientific basis on factors influencing dietary behaviour and the health, environmental and socio-economic impacts of dietary patterns and deliver solutions for transition through a transdisciplinary and ...

Ziekenhuisgebouwen worden door patiënten vaak beleefd vanuit een, voor architecten, atypisch perspectief, nl. liggend in een ziekenhuisbed. Dit alternatief perspectief heeft een sterke invloed op de ruimtelijke beleving  van patiënten. Inzicht verwerven in deze beleving is voor architecten geen eenvoudige opdracht, maar essentieel willen zij gebouwen ontwerpen waarin patiënten echt centraal staan

Food fermentation has been used for millennia, but our knowledge on the impact of fermented foods on human health and the possible role of gut microbiota in it is limited. Microbial consortia and fermentation processes are, hence, not designed for optimal health outcomes. At the same time, fermentation technology represents a major opportunity to increase incorporation of plant-based proteins in diets.
The multi-actor consortium HealthFerm ...
