Food Alert was designed to be a practical and direct means to help bridge the gap between policy analysis and practical application by those involved in the complex process of transforming food systems. The first edition of Food Alert focused on a simulation of a climate-triggered crisis affecting EU food supplies.
The idea for Food Alert came to life during 2023, as an effort to strengthen food systems, particularly their resilience to external stressors and shocks caused by increasingly severe climate change and related sustainability challenges. Project Partners include: Chris Hegadorn (Lead Organizer, Sciences Po Paris), Centre for Systems Solutions, Prospero & Partners, Chatham House, European Policy Centre and INRAE.
The Food Alert project benefits from the recent global attention directed toward food systems transformation fostered by the UN Secretary General’s September 2021 Food Systems Summit. It also builds upon the earlier work performed within the CASCADES EU Horizon project and other EU-funded projects linked to addressing climate impacts and improving EU food system resilience. Each of the six Food Alert partners and supporters has brought with them a wealth of expertise and experience linked to food and agriculture that, collectively, has enriched the process from start to finish.

The dissemination of a summary report based on the Food Alert Workshop will take place on 27 March 2024 at the Permanent Representation of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to the EU in Brussels. The report will be disseminated to the EU Commission, Members of Parliament and the public, providing reflections, outcomes, and valuable insights for strategic crisis preparation.
The Food Alert Report Launch will be broadcasted via a YouTube livestream broadcast. Participants will be able to pose questions during the webstream, which host organizers will strive to respond to either live or afterwards.
