Pathways to self-sufficiency and to sustainable and healthy protein system

What have been accomplished – ScenoProt

ScenoProt (Novel protein sources for food security and climate) project has worked almost six years towards a more self-sufficient, versatile and sustainable protein system. Now it is time to welcome our stakeholders and interested parties to hear some of the results including insights about novel protein sources, consumer markets and health and environmental effects of different diets. See the detailed program below.

Vision of ScenoProt project states that in 2030, consumers will eat tasty, healthy and sustainably produced food. New diversified protein sources that will mitigate climate change are used and are produced closer to consumers. New tasty and innovative food products are being developed. ScenoProt project is ending and interesting results aiming at realizing the vision are presented and openly discussed.

The seminar is organized online and will be held in English, except panel discussions are in Finnish.
We kindly ask you to register so that we can send you the link to the event. You may attend both days or only one day.

Thank you and see you in March!
