Co-centre will focus on food safety, food production, nutrition, plant and animal science, and more
A new €35 million Co-Centre for Sustainable Food Systems has been launched in a collaboration across Ireland, Northern Ireland and Great Britain. The centre aims to drive societal and political change in food system transformation and transition to climate neutrality by 2050, and comes just weeks after the launch of the first Co-Centre, the Co-Centre for Climate + Biodiversity + Water, based on the same collaborative model.
According to Science Foundation Ireland, the co-centre, managed jointly by Queen’s University Belfast, University of Sheffield and University College Dublin, will bring together world-leading researchers from across Ireland, Northern Ireland and Great Britain for the first time, with research expertise in specific shared areas of common interest that are core to food system transformation.
