Descripción del proyecto
Un esfuerzo colectivo para desarrollar el enfoque «de la granja a la mesa»
Las cadenas alimentarias cortas (SFSC, por sus siglas en inglés), por las que los productos agrícolas llegan al consumidor a través de un número limitado de operadores económicos, están surgiendo como uno de los enfoques de la Unión Europea (UE) para mejorar su competitividad en este sector vital. En este contexto, el equipo del proyecto financiado con fondos europeos COREnet pretende aumentar la eficacia del sistema de SFSC en todos los Estados miembros de la UE. Para ello, creará un comité consultivo compuesto por múltiples agentes relevantes a fin de permitir el intercambio de soluciones prácticas rentables para mejorar el rendimiento de las SFSC. También se elaborará una lista de casos de éxito de las SFSC para seguir fomentando las mejores prácticas. El trabajo del proyecto facilitará la transición hacia sistemas alimentarios más inclusivos, resilientes y sostenibles.
Objetivo
Short Food Supply Chains (SFSCs) or producer-consumer chains are supply chains involving a limited number of intermediaries between farmers and consumers, who are committed to cooperation, local economic development, and maintaining close geographical and social relations. In rebuilding post-Covid, SFSCs are being promoted by governments, civil society and consumer groups in many EU member states as a means for building more inclusive, resilient and sustainable food systems. But SFSC initiators, participants and promoters are confronted by a fragmented knowledge landscape, coupled with a lack of clarity as to essential skills and competencies in all phases from farm to fork. The COREnet project proposes to respond by supporting the systematic development of more effective SFSC advising, based on bringing together public, private and civic advisors through IT-enabled peer-to-peer learning and mutual support. This approach requires interacting with advisors, farmers, consumers and a more holistic approach aimed at helping SFSCs achieve not just a bigger market share, but a greener market impact. Project activities are concerned with (1) developing SFSC advisory capabilities based on a knowledge mapping and on-line listing of SFSC advisors from all EU27 in ways that enable the sharing and exchange of cost-effective practice solutions that improve SFSC social, economic and environmental performance and increase their impact in the food value chain; (2) preparing learning resources in the form of a network of 30 Golden Cases (exemplars of SFSC models that have achieved business success) and initiating 27 Lighthouse Projects (initiatives using Golden cases to introduce advisory services for improving SFSC performance with at least one in each of the EU-27); (3) establishing a pan-European peer-to-peer learning network for SFSC advisors and proposing a formal organizational solution that assures its sustainability and integration into the AKIS.
