Project description
New Bauhaus concept to transform European urban food systems
Bauhaus Bites Food Environments envision urban ecosystems that support sustainable and healthy diets while fostering inclusivity and cultural diversity. The EU-funded Bauhaus Bites project will transform urban food systems by developing these environments in seven cities, each at different societal readiness levels. Insights will be shared in a comprehensive playbook, facilitating the adoption of sustainable practices by similar initiatives. Integrating principles from Farm to Fork, FOOD 2030, and the Planetary Health Diet, along with the values of the New European Bauhaus, the project will reimagine urban food environments. It focuses on co-creating solutions with local communities and embedding them within vibrant social spaces tailored to their cultural and ecological contexts.
Objective
The project will deliver urban food system transformation via Bauhaus Bites (BB) Food Environments, co-created and demonstrated in 7 cities at different levels of societal readiness, their transferability discussed with sister projects and European/global networks, and the results summarised in a Playbook for broad adoption. Bauhaus Bites Food Environments are urban and peri-urban ecosystems that commit to implementing sustainable healthy diets, amplified by the New European Bauhaus, and fortified with Nature-Based Solutions, ensuring that the transformed food environments of tomorrow are sustainable, inclusive and beautiful.
By merging the key perspectives of European and global strategies such as the Farm to Fork and FOOD 2030 strategies, the Planetary Health Diet and the Planetary Health Diets with the New European Bauhaus values and principles, Bauhaus Bites offers a unique approach not yet seen in food system transformation projects, that will reimagine these food environments together with local, culturally diverse communities, customised to meet their needs, and anchored in social meeting spaces that carry meaning for them.
The project will co-create BB Food environments in 3 Trailblazers (Birmingham, Fundão, Zagreb) and 4 Twins (Murska Sobota, Ostend, Palermo, Sarajevo) with different geographies, sizes, demographic challenges and societal readiness, boost mutual learning through a Community of Practice, document their added value with science-based indicators to inform high-level policy-making, test them for transferability with European/global networks, and summarise the learnings, guidelines, methods and examples in a Playbook. The BB approach will be based on inclusive participation and co-creation, including city and regional authorities, community- and business-driven initiatives, and inhabitants and end users of the food environments.
