It occurs when people generate science-based knowledge that contributes to understand and transform the system. It connects people and science, creating a new culture that humanizes science and turns to a more democratic research based on evidence provided by citizens, contributing, in this case, to build a safer, more transparent food system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CITIZEN SCIENCE project aims to increase consumer trust in the food system inspiring citizens to become change agents as amateur scientist,&nbsp;in the transition towards an inclusive and trusted food system based on science.&nbsp;This activity will address concerns regarding food integrity which includes food authenticity and safety issues, that are relevant to build consumer trust.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project will develop gamification activities through challenges that address concerns regarding&nbsp;food&nbsp;integrity (including&nbsp;food authenticity&nbsp;and&nbsp;safety).&nbsp;This will allow people&nbsp;to participate and&nbsp;to be&nbsp;relevant actors in science, to contribute with data,&nbsp;and to work in a collaborative way with scientists&nbsp;to fight main challenges related to trust in the food&nbsp;system.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Expected results&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CITIZEN SCIENCE aims to develop an&nbsp;inspiring&nbsp;way to give citizens the opportunity to contribute to food research and knowledge production related to food safety and authenticity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The conclusions obtained from this pilot&nbsp;will improve food chain decision-making processes and R&amp;D solutions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project will generate knowledge&nbsp;and&nbsp;increase awareness and skills for a deeper understanding of the scientific work, encouraging society to move forward a better&nbsp;consumption and&nbsp;behaviour&nbsp;based on transparency and trust.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It will enforce&nbsp;citizens\u00b4&nbsp;confidence in the European food system through evidence-based science.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"two-columns-content-right\">\n        <div class=\"related-members\">\n                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"info-table\">\n    <table>\n                    <tr>\n                <td>Partners<\/td>\n                <td>\n                                                <p>AZTI (coordinator), Aarhus Univeristy, Be You App, Queen\u00b4s University &#8211; Belfast<\/p>                        \n                                        <\/td>\n            <\/tr>\n                    <tr>\n                <td>Funding<\/td>\n                <td>\n                                                <p>EIT Food<\/p>                        \n                                        <\/td>\n            <\/tr>\n                    <tr>\n                <td>Length<\/td>\n                <td>\n                                                <p>January 2019 &#8211; December 2020<\/p>                        \n                                        <\/td>\n            <\/tr>\n            <\/table>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"289\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-1024x289.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15701\" srcset=\"https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-1024x289.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-300x85.jpg 300w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-768x217.jpg 768w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-450x127.jpg 450w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-900x254.jpg 900w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-992x280.jpg 992w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1-1200x338.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/EIT-Food-Body-of-EU-vertical-1.jpg 1511w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16345,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","contexts":[],"application":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.4.1 -
