Niche innovations in Europe for the transformation of the food system - NEuropa | Umweltbundesamt

In recent years, numerous niche innovations have emerged in the food systems of European countries, which have the potential to contribute to the necessary, more sustainable shaping of food systems. These niche innovations are presented in this publication as well as classified and evaluated with regard to their potential contribution to the transformation of the food system. The findings from this collection of profiles lead to an outlook that shows which next steps would be necessary to strengthen niche innovations in Germany and to transfer first positive experiences from other European countries to Germany. In particular, associations, federations, companies and public administration are to be encouraged by this project to implement the latest niches from Europe in Germany by means of knowledge transfer, networking and qualification.
