European Cities Pave the Way for Healthy, Fair and Sustainable Food Systems 13 May 2021 Slow Food is a proud partner of the Food Trails project, a four-year initiative that will enable the design of pilot activities in 11 European cities in order to help them co-create urban food policy. The goal is to empower communities, promote a zero-waste use of resources, promote environmentally friendly behavior change and ensure people have healthy and secure diets. The sustainability of food systems at all levels is one of the European Union’s top priorities for this decade, and it has taken the first steps towards making European food systems sustainable, healthy and fair, by adopting the EU Farm to Fork Strategy. But what role has been assigned to cities in this process, and how can they contribute to the EU’s nutritional, climate and social targets?
