Trust in Food Systems

‘Trust in Food Systems’ is a research area within the Co-Centre for Sustainable Food Systems. The Co-Centre for Sustainable Food Systems encompasses a research programme of oriented basic and applied research in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and social sciences across the Republic of Ireland (ROI), Northern Ireland (NI) and Great Britain (GB). The Co-Centre presents a unique opportunity to rapidly develop innovative and transformative solutions to transition the food system and position Ireland and the UK as a research and innovation global leader for positive and sustainable change in the transition to climate-neutrality by 2050.

The ‘Trust in Food Systems’ work package aims to strengthen interdisciplinary understandings of the current food system policies and regulation in Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, together with their alignments, conflicts and necessary trade-offs.
