THE INNOAQUA PROJECT JOINED Horizon4Proteins
In light of the pressing issues posed by climate change and the depletion of natural resources, the task of providing adequate, nutritious, safe, and affordable food to a rapidly expanding global population with evolving dietary preferences grows increasingly challenging.
Within this context, the availability of protein emerges as a pivotal concern. Exploring and integrating a diverse array of novel or alternative protein sources, whether terrestrial or aquatic, into both new and existing processes or products becomes imperative to cultivate a more sustainable and resilient food supply chain.
In alignment with these shared objectives, a consortium of the EU-H2020-funded projects NextGenProteins, ProFuture, Smart Protein, and SUSINCHAIN, later joined by the EU Horizon Europe funded projects INNOAQUA, GIANT LEAPS, LIKE-A-PRO, and VALPRO Path, established Horizon4Proteins. This collaborative partnership was initiated with the aim of fostering dialogue and innovation in the realm of alternative proteins.
Through collaboration and knowledge-sharing, Horizon4Proteins endeavors to harness the collective expertise and insights of diverse stakeholders to address the multifaceted challenges and opportunities associated with alternative proteins. The platform serves as an inclusive forum where ideas are exchanged, innovations are fostered, and solutions are co-created to advance the sustainability and resilience of our global food systems. Join us in charting a path towards a more sustainable and equitable future for food production and consumption.
EVENTS: INNOAQUA WILL BE JOINING THE EUROPEAN MARITIME DAY 2024
European Maritime Day (EMD) 2024 promises to be a beacon of innovation, collaboration, and sustainability in the maritime sector. Among the distinguished participants, NORCE, the coordinator of the groundbreaking INNOAQUA Project, is set to shine as it brings its expertise and vision to the forefront.
Mark your calendars for May 30-31, 2024, as Svendborg becomes the epicenter of maritime excellence.
EVENTS INNOAQUA WILL BE JOINING AQUA 2024
The AQUA events are co-organised by the European Aquaculture Society (EAS) and the World Aquaculture Society (WAS) and are held every six years. Past events were held in Nice (2000), Florence (2006), Prague (2012) and Montpellier (2018).
AQUA 2024 will take place from August 26-30 in the Danish capital of Copenhagen. It will comprise a scientific conference, trade exhibition, industry forums, workshops, student events and receptions. The event will highlight the latest aquaculture research and innovation to underpin continued growth of this exciting food production sector.
PARTNERS
Led by NORCE (project coordinator), the INNOAQUA project brings together 17 partners from 8 countries.
