“New food resources and technologies to improve public health and food security” (FOODRETEC)

The aim of this call is to build knowledge to prepare for and succeed with a dietary shift towards a healthier and more sustainable diet. This demands a system approach. Improved use of resources and designing new foods will be a driving force. The new knowledge will contribute to the preparedness for a future with a higher global food demand on scarce resources. This call deals with several interrelated topics, such as food security, food safety, nutrition, and consumer acceptance. It will focus on new food ingredients, new food or technologies and their contribution to healthy, sustainable diets. Important aspects to be addressed in this regard are safety, nutritional quality, digestibility, bioeconomic aspects, and consumer acceptance of new ingredients, food and framework conditions.

Proposals should include one or more of the following approaches and methodologies:

• Exploratory research where consumer insight is included (social labs, living labs, etc.)
• Systemic reviews to map and organize current research on the area
• Building more research and knowledge on the food science aspects
