Nutrition and food production play a central role for sustainable development. In order to reach the goal of sustainable food production and sustainable nutrition, food strategies in the form of sustainable public procurement have been established increasingly in recent years. Good-practice examples of such sustainable public food provision can serve as example models, but it is not yet clear whether and under what conditions they can be transferred to other regions, such as NRW.
In the light of this background, ConPolicy was commissioned by the Verbraucherzentrale NRW with the project "Sustainable Public Food Provision for NRW". The aim of this project is to draw findings from Good-Practice examples of sustainable public food provision and based on this, to develop practical recommendations for political strategies for the development of sustainable public food provision in NRW. The results will be presented on 30.08.2021 during the symposium "Sustainable community catering in NRW - from knowledge to action" in Düsseldorf.
