The EEB, alongside 102 other organisations and 24 academics have delivered this letter to President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, in which we express our deep concern over the Commission’s new focus on a ‘Strategic Dialogue’, which remains largely undefined in scope and purpose, and which appears set to replace this Commission’s promise to deliver on promised – and urgently needed EU legislation concerning the future of EU food and farming systems, most notably the EU legislative framework for Sustainable Food Systems (FSFS) and the revision of legislation on animal welfare, which are absent from the Commission 2024 Work Programme.
