ECDPM's Sustainable Food Systems for Sustainable Development

13 July 2017. SASS is a consortium project between ECDPM and four Italian universities (UNIPV, UNICATT, UNIMIB & UNISG), funded by the Italian Ministry of Research, running for a two-year period (2017-2018).

The SASS project should contribute to the needed shift to more Sustainable Food Systems (SFS), based on multidisciplinary research, dialogue and partnership-building activities, more specifically about the opportunity to combine the so-called “neglected and underutilised species” (NUS) that are “short”, informal value chains, less served by infrastructure and international support, with the “long”, formal value chains (widely supported internationally), with the objective of commercial production.
