The sister projects ENFASYS & VISIONARY are nearing completion. ZALF coordinates the work package 3 – “Experiments in the context of agri-environmental policy” in the VISIONARY project – “Food Provision through sustainable farming systems and value chains”. On June 16, 2026, the projects will celebrate their farewell in Brussels. The celebration will mainly take place on site, but there will also be the option of participating in the plenary sessions in a hybrid format.
The projects aim to investigate how combining system-level approaches with behavioural research, alongside social, policy, and economic instruments, can accelerate the transition toward more sustainable food and farming systems in Europe.
On June 16, 2026, the projects will conclude by bringing together a wide range of stakeholders from politics, interest groups from the agricultural and food sector, and researchers to present their findings. This will take place in a mix of plenary sessions, panel discussions, smaller interactive breakout sessions, and special project stands. Questions such as the following will be addressed: What is preventing us from transitioning to more sustainable food systems? How can these obstacles be overcome? Join us and experience how new social, political, and economic instruments could bring sustainability to agriculture and food systems in Europe.
Date: June 16, 2026, 9:00 a.m. – 6:30 p.m.
Location: Vlaamse Overheid - Herman Teirlinck Building, Brussels and online
Target audience: Stakeholders from politics, agriculture, the food industry, and research
Registration for the event will open in April 2026.
