PLAN’EAT Objectives
The main objective of the project is to promote a shift towards healthy and sustainable dietary behavior by developing effective recommendations, tools and interventions for food actors, to identify the factors influencing dietary habits and the health, environmental and socio-economic impacts of dietary habits, and to implement a multi-stakeholder, multi-layered and systemic approach at a macro (food system), meso (food environment) and micro (individual) levels. To this end, a Living Lab (LL) will be set up to test the good practices of caterers, involving 600 food system actors and 1800 citizens. Each LL will map the food consumption and behavioral patterns of different population groups (young children, children and adolescents, young adults, pregnant women and young parents, middle-aged adults, middle-aged adults to elderly, elderly, people with non-communicable diseases, low-income people), covering a wide range of socio-cultural-geographical contexts.
Final products
To create a common set of solutions to shift at least 58 500 consumers towards healthier and more sustainable dietary patterns by 2032. This would reduce premature mortality by 20% in 39 areas and greenhouse gas emissions by 23% in local food supply chains.
