This Phase seeks to ensure a fuller understanding of food commoditiesand consumer/ socio-economic aspects of food choice across Europe.

This phase introduces concepts such as nutrition and health claims, food security, micronutrient supplementation, food fortification and food assurance schemes. It hopes to ensure that young people are able to be prudent and critical consumers. Over the duration of the project additional resources will added to illustrate these concepts based on EU funded research.
