“Rather than incremental change (and effectively maintaining the status quo) we need to be bold and embrace the systems transformation needed towards new sustainable food systems. A transition approach that highlights which stakeholder needs to do what in which phase of the transition will help to manage the complex transition towards a more plant-based food system in Europe.
Siska Pottie, Secretary-General, European Alliance for Plant-based Foods
It is time for the European Commission to recognise formally the huge potential of shifting towards more plant-based production and consumption in Europe to make the EU food system truly more sustainable, improving EU food security and strengthening the resilience of the EU food system. EAPF recommends that the European Commission develops within the Legal Framework for sustainable food systems a clear ambition and a vision on how to support and accelerate the shift towards more food crop production and plant-based food consumption in the EU setting also time bound targets guiding the Member States to contribute to the overall EU ambition”.

In the Netherlands the transition has been actively managed for years. Differentiating between sub-transitions and clarifying which stakeholder needs to do what in which phase, helped us to make strategic choices for our own role. Bringing forward the transition theory also helped to be in continuous dialogue with all stakeholders involved in the food chain. With the establishment of the First “Plant the Future diner”, a national multistakeholder dialogue, we contributed to moving the transition in The Netherlands forward.

As Healthy Food Healthy Planet we engaged in this paper to inspire the weaving of a common narrative. A narrative that illustrates how transitions work and evolve as we learn, sparking discussions and collaborations between all stakeholders -even unusual ones-. These are critical ingredients to embark on a joint pathway to accelerate the needed diet shift towards more plant-based production & consumption in the EU and its member states while embracing national backgrounds and cultural differences.
