About the Conference
We aim to explore the policy dynamics and the relationship between the actors involved in the agrifood chains as players implementing the different aspects of sustainability; analyse key issues related to the "sustainable food system” defined as a comprehensive concept by the EU Commission; identify legal models, best practices and case studies related to sustainability issues; finally, present a perspective of policy and legal schemes aimed at identifying a sustainability paradigm for this sector.
The Opening session of the Conference (15thMay 2024) initiates the discussion about the definition of a legal concept of sustainability in the light of the “food system” as outlined by the Farm to Fork document as well as the possible outcomes of the Sustainability Regulative Framework in the European Union.
On 16th May Parallel sessions will be held on 3 sub-topics of the conference.
During the final session (17th May) the result of the discussion of each session will be presented. A final document will be drafted and presented as the result of the FLAN conference.
