THE INNOAQUA PROJECT JOINED
Horizon4Proteins
In light of the pressing issues posed by climate change and the depletion of natural resources, the task of providing adequate, nutritious, safe, and affordable food to a rapidly expanding global population with evolving dietary preferences grows increasingly challenging.
Within this context, the availability of protein emerges as a pivotal concern. Exploring and integrating a diverse array of novel or alternative protein sources, whether terrestrial or aquatic, into both new and existing processes or products becomes imperative to cultivate a more sustainable and resilient food supply chain.
In alignment with these shared objectives, a consortium of the EU-H2020-funded projects NextGenProteins, ProFuture, Smart Protein, and SUSINCHAIN, later joined by the EU Horizon Europe funded projects INNOAQUA, GIANT LEAPS, LIKE-A-PRO, and VALPRO Path, established Horizon4Proteins. This collaborative partnership was initiated with the aim of fostering dialogue and innovation in the realm of alternative proteins.
Through collaboration and knowledge-sharing, Horizon4Proteins endeavors to harness the collective expertise and insights of diverse stakeholders to address the multifaceted challenges and opportunities associated with alternative proteins. The platform serves as an inclusive forum where ideas are exchanged, innovations are fostered, and solutions are co-created to advance the sustainability and resilience of our global food systems. Join us in charting a path towards a more sustainable and equitable future for food production and consumption.
