A Healthy Diet for a Healthy Life
Joint Programming strenghtens cooperation between EU Member States in research and development to address major societal challenges. It involves Member States engaging in defining, developing and implementing strategic research agendas. ‘A healthy diet for a healthy life’ has been proposed as one such Joint Programming Initiative.
The Council of the EU confirmed this initiative with its respective conclusions in December 2009. On 28 April 2010, the European Commission released a recommendation on this JPI. In its conclusions of 26 May 2010 the Council welcomes this recommendation and invites Member States to develop and implement a Strategic Research Agenda in October 2010.
