Project summary

This foresight project explored the complex interactions shaping Europe’s food system through a systems thinking approach. Combining systems mapping, causal loop diagrams, expert workshops, and participatory analysis, it developed a methodological framework for cross-systems analysis, examined key interactions across the food system, and informed the European Environment Agency’s work on sustainable transitions.
