Food & Nature

Soil degradation, biodiversity loss and climate change are among the most pressing challenges Europe faces. They are closely linked to how we produce food, how we manage natural resources and how we protect ecosystems. Their impact extends beyond environmental stability, influencing economic resilience, public health and societal well-being across Europe and beyond.

To address these challenges, we need research and innovation that bridge disciplines and sectors. We need academia, industry, policymakers and practitioners to work together and develop solutions that rethink existing systems with the goal of preserving the landscapes and biodiversity we value today.

Within the innovation ecosystem FOOD & NATURE, we connect initiatives that focus on soil health, sustainable agriculture, bio-based innovation and food system transformation. Together, these efforts help build environmental resilience and support thriving communities.

Healthy Soils, Sustainable Tomorrow

Healthy Soils, Sustainable Tomorrow

Soil is the foundation of food production, biodiversity and climate resilience. However, it is increasingly under pressure across Europe – and around the globe. Understanding, restoring and preserving soil health requires interdisciplinary research, regenerative practices and coordinated innovation efforts.

We help turn soil research into collaborative action: connecting the right actors to develop scalable solutions that restore ecosystems and secure long-term productivity.

Strengthening sustainable food systems and protecting natural ecosystems is not optional — it is essential for Europe’s future resilience, prosperity and well-being.
