News archive - [Event Announcement] What's for Lunch? — Interactive conference on a decade of EU-funded research into food integrity
Food integrity is becoming increasingly important; authenticity, origin of food, geographical location (terroir traceability and security and safety of food production requires new diagnostic tools and implementation of new information systems). A conference organised by several major EU projects will take place on September 20, 2011 in Brussels.
The What's for Lunch conference is an event focused upon parliamentary decision makers and it is organised by the coordinators of 8-10 major European research projects which include some of the world's largest food safety research projects in the areas of microbiology, chemistry and food production technologies. It is worth recalling that at the begining of the last decade the European Parliament specifically requested that the Sixth Framework Programme dedicate part of the specific programme budget to food traceability and integrity. The event will demonstrate what has been done in this respect and what has still to be done to ensure proper food chain integrity and food security.
The conference wil be held in Brussels, Charlemagne building
20 September 2011
