Euroopa Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomitee
Toit on meie elu keskmes ja Euroopa kultuuri lahutamatu osa. Toidul, mida me sööme, selle tootmise viisil ja raisatud toidu kogustel on suur mõju inimeste tervisele, loodusvaradele ja ühiskonnale tervikuna:
COVID-19 kriis on häirekell, mis annab märku muutuste vajadusest. See on esile toonud, et toidu jõudmist talust taldrikule ei tohi võtta enesestmõistetavana, ning on näidanud osalejate ja tegevuse omavahelist seotust kogu toidusüsteemis. Rohkem kui kunagi varem on kogu põllumajanduse ja toiduainesektoris vaja õiglasi, ressursitõhusaid, kaasavaid ja kestlikke tarneahelaid, et varustada ühtviisi nii inimesi, põllumajandustootjaid, töötajaid kui ka ettevõtteid.
Komitee on juba aastaid olnud kestliku ja tervikliku toidupoliitika nõudmisel esirinnas. Selline integreeritud ja süsteemne lähenemisviis on oluline, et lahendada toidusüsteeme mõjutavad arvukad ja omavahel seotud probleemid, tagada majanduslik, keskkonnaalane ja sotsiaalkultuuriline jätkusuutlikkus, kindlustada poliitikavaldkondade (nt põllumajandus, keskkond, tervishoid, haridus, kaubandus, majandus ja tehnoloogia) integreeritus ja sidusus ning edendada valitsemistasandite koostööd.
The event will take place both in Brussels and in Ljubljana in hybrid form. Registration for external participants will be open on this page until 25 November 2021.
The webinar will take place in the context of the EESC Thematic Study Group on Sustainable Food Systems, in cooperation with the EESC INT Section and will explore amongst other questions, how to better align food industry with the SDGs and stimulate sustainable food production, processing, and distribution across the chain.
This online public hearing will discuss how to transform the targets proposed in the Action Plan for the development of EU organic production into on-the-ground strategies related to organic production and consumption.
The online public hearing organised by the EESC in the context of the EESC Thematic Study Group (TSG) on Sustainable Food Systems aims to explore the vulnerabilities and inequalities of European food systems and to identify the enablers to achieve more equitable and fair supply chains.
The EESC’s Temporary Study Group on Sustainable Food, together with the Food Lawyers’ Network - FLN, invites you for an one-day conference on innovation in food. With high-levels speakers, including from the European Commission, and a multitude of expertise gathered in the conference room, there will be a focus on market access for regulated products, especially novel food and on science against food fraud as well as intellectual property for food including patents and data protection.
In the context of the UN 2030 Agenda, the European Economic and Social Committee will hold a public debate where we will explore how the EESC has worked towards implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in practice – both with civil society, and within the Committee itself.
Between June 2021 and March 2022, the EESC held a series of events on the updated new industrial strategy. Each event was organised by a different section of the EESC and focused on a specific aspect of the strategy, with the aim of hearing the views of civil society organisations on the future of European industry.
