The FOODIS project
Co-funded by the European Union – Interreg Italy-Austria Program 2021–2027, the FOODIS project was created to strengthen the resilience and sustainability of food systems in the cross-border area between Friuli Venezia Giulia and Carinthia, in response to the challenges posed by climate change and geopolitical events.
The goal is to enhance companies’ ability to absorb innovation and integrate circular processes within the food sector’s value chains.
By creating a shared cross-border ecosystem, the project provides skills, services, and opportunities through an integrated approach, leveraging the complementarity of infrastructures and know-how between the two regions.
Activities include mapping needs and opportunities, establishing a network of experts in food and sustainable logistics, developing pilot actions and reference models for sustainability, and producing guidelines to steer policies and investments toward the circular economy.
