This reflection and awareness should start from the analysis of our own lifestyle, definitively. \u201cI can\u2019t believe<\/em>\u201d has been one of the most common reaction after the participants of the professional path have calculated their ecological footprint<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n We can discover it by calculating the ecological footprint. It measures the amount of environment necessary to produce the resources consumed by human demand (M. Wackernagel<\/strong>, W. Rees<\/strong>, \u201cOur Ecological Footprint: Reducing Human Impact on the Earth\u201d, 1996).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here some tools to calculate it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/www.footprintcalculator.org\/home\/en<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/www.wwf.ch\/it\/vivere-sostenibile\/calcolatore-dell-impronta-ecologica<\/a> <\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The theme of sustainability<\/strong> is one of the core pillars of the training path. The focus on the 2030 Agenda<\/strong><\/a> has been considered fundamental and specific focus has been given to the sustainable goals addressing food security through sustainable agriculture (SDGs 2 and 12) and to protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems (SDG 15).<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, the participants had the chance to reflect about the impact of agri-food supply chain<\/strong> and how modern production and food processing techniques can be efficient while respecting the environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our participants are fully aware that #2030isnow<\/strong><\/a> and with this increased understanding their training path is going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Knowledge about food raw materials, certifications in the food sector, and\u2026a lot is about to come! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our story continues\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The goal of the project InnovAgroWoMed<\/a> is to boost women employability and entrepreneurshipin the Agri-food sector<\/strong>, an industry closely linked to the cultural identity of the Mediterranean region and showing a significant level of untapped potential in terms of innovation and growth. InnovAgroWoMed is a project funded by the European Union under ENI CBC Mediterranean Sea Basin Programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Visit the project website<\/a> and read more about InnovAgroWoMed<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow many Earths do we need to support our today\u2019s consumption of natural resources?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
