Webinar 2: Science–policy–society interface in food policy: Towards institutional and territorial coherence
What are the practical implications of SPI and SPSI in a Policy context as demonstrated in three national cases?
The webinar presents 3 different national case studies – from Italy, Denmark and Belgium- with the aim of understanding how to bridge the gap in SPI with regards to food policies. The 3 case studies focus on multi-actor approaches and networking activities.
Definition of SPIS vs SPI: Are there main differences in the role of science and scientific integrity?
Italy: Bridging the gap in food policies by a transdisciplinary and multi-actor policy approach
Denmark: Science to policy interface in support of the Food Agency’s policy for transition to plant-based diets
Flanders (Belgium): Networking for the food system transition via policy-science-society interface
Guided brainstorming sessions in break-out rooms
Which factors enable or hinder effective dialogue between scientists and policymakers at different institutional levels?
What are the main elements that enable good practices for SPSI on these different institutional levels?
Can (elements of) good practices in SPSI be generalized and turned into “universal principles”, or are they fully case- and context-specific?
This webinar extends the SPI discussion towards SPSI and institutional coherence, directly shaping the content and scope of the final guidelines developed in Webinar 3 (22 April).
