Problem definition

Universities have the challenge of improving their food supply, adjusting to the objectives of environmental sustainability, to the characteristics of healthy eating and to the tastes and preferences of the users of university canteens.

Solution

The Supra-autonomous Operational Group “Sustainable Public Food 4.0” aims to improve the competences of local organic fruit and vegetable producers in order to favour the transition to sustainability in public canteens in Madrid, Valencia and the Canary Islands. This is an innovation project, which seeks to generate the knowledge and tools necessary to promote the consumption of organic and local fruit and vegetable products in public universities.
