Agrobiodiversity is in rapid decline, due to the intensification of agriculture and development food value chains based on industrial processing techniques. However, consumers are not generally involved developing solutions reverse this trend their relation agrobiodiversity remains largely unknown. As part a European project, with aim involving guiding research, innovation policies, large online survey (n = 2397) focus groups 82) were carried out seven countries gather consumers' preferences...
ABSTRACT According to a popular aphorism, biometrics are turning the human body into passport or password. As usual, aphorisms say more than they intend. Taking dictum seriously, we would be two: ourself and our body. Who we, if not body? And what is without us? The endless history of identification systems teaches that trivial fact but always involves web economic interests, political relations, symbolic networks, narratives meanings. Certainly there reasons for ethical concerns surrounding...
In this article, the authors aim to reflect on relationship between collaborative creation and creativity ('co-creativity') within Living Lab (LL) research innovation in domain of agri-food systems.While value LL is often perceived be collaboration among its participants, there a need capture measure process co-creation.Co-creativity indicated by literature necessary component social change, as well for promoting transformative sustainability agenda.This article uses empirical primary data...
Due to climate changes, resources availability and evolving markets, the food system is developing towards an articulated complex ecology, with fast transformations occurring in production, preparation, delivery disposal. In this context, innovation needed not just ideate solutions deal a fast-changing but also accompany change adopting systemic long-term approach. We reflect on transformational potential of design sector enabled by digital technologies, one current major drivers change....
Abstract In the past 20 years, two new disciplines have been created and evolved, first as separate subjects, now more interconnected: food studies design studies. The motive behind recent success popularity of education in agri-food sector lies fact that everywhere world, boundaries around world nutrition widened. More attention is dedicated to communication, proximity, connections, social cultural values, construction systems. There a growing need find ways defeat paradoxes (malnutrition,...
