AIDIC - Food Engineering Working Group
To tackle the challenges of climate change, environmental degradation, biodiversity loss, malnutrition, and noncommunicable diseases, the Food Engineering working group of the Italian Association of Food Engineering (AIDIC-Food Engineering) is committed to contributing to the transformation of food systems. Leveraging its scientific expertise and operational influence, the group aims to drive impactful change.
AIDIC-Food Engineering seeks to act as a catalyst for collaboration between industry, academia, and government institutions, addressing sustainability challenges in food and nutrition through innovative solutions and interdisciplinary efforts.
Purposes of the EFF Conference Series
Engineers must be forward-thinking, particularly when it comes to shaping the future of the food system.
Responsible engineering plays a crucial role in ensuring that everyone has access to safe, healthy, and sustainable food.
-There are several key ways to achieve this, that are promoted by the EFF Conferences:
-Optimizing food production through responsible use of science and technology;
-Anticipating changes in food system management and understanding their impact on the economy and society;
-Promoting Fairtrade practices to ensure ethical and equitable food sourcing;
-Reducing pollution, by engineering solutions that minimize the environmental footprint of the food system.
