The FOSTER Academy: A co-learning structure to enhance integration of citizen science within the ERA

福斯特的愿景是为欧洲食品系统建立一个新的知识和创新系统(KIS)的基础。目前的结构不足以应对以健康和可持续的方式养活人民的新挑战。关键目标是深入了解如何建设它，使其更具包容性和更好的治理。福斯特将帮助转变欧洲的食品体系成果，并将通过以下方式实现这一目标：-建立一个福斯特平台，包括食品体系最先进的知识、通过半自动地平线扫描进行的预见、趋势和威胁-分析和到2040年欧盟食品体系的新的多维情景；-实施福斯特学院--包括4所暑期学校--用于整合食品体系相关学科和公民科学，以加强整个时代对食品体系的理解；--在六个国家区域内启动和评估共同创造和共同学习的进程。区域公民驱动的举措(CDI)，其中获得了新的知识、战略和行动研究议程；-针对其他领土情况扩大和深化CDI解决方案和办法；-研究不同的R&I政策机制，以支持面向任务的粮食系统转型的R&I政策，并在每个CDI中对其进行分析和实地验证；-通过与外部专家共同学习过程加强科学-政策接口，并针对不同的地理和部门为粮食系统的R&I政策制定建议；-确定触发点，以帮助“解锁”系统，并支持进一步推动系统转型；-对福斯特的所有共同学习活动进行反思监测，以深入了解如何将KIS从农业KIS扩大到食品系统KIS。为了鼓励采用福斯特学习，将举办20多个讲习班和最后一次会议；将广泛传播科学立场文件和政策简报。

The vision of FOSTER is to build a foundation from which a new Knowledge and Innovation System (KIS) for Europe’s food system can emerge. The current structure is insufficient to address the emerging challenges of nourishing people in a healthy and sustainable way. Key objective is to gain insights into how it can be built to be more inclusive and better governed. FOSTER shall help to transform Europe’sfood system outcomes and will achieve this by: - building a FOSTER Platform including food system-state of the art knowledge, foresight by semi-automated Horizon scanning, trend and threats-analysis and new multi-dimensional scenarios of EU food systems to 2040; - implementing the FOSTER Academy -including 4 Summer Schools- for integrating food system-related disciplines and citizen science to enhance food system understanding across the ERA; - initiating and assessing a co-creation and co-learning process within six national resp. regional Citizen Driven Initiatives (CDIs), in which new knowledge, strategies and Action Research Agendas are gained; - scaling out and deep CDIs solutions and approaches to other territorial contexts; - studying different R&I mechanisms of policy support for mission-oriented R&I policy for food systems transformation, and analysing and ground-proofing them in each CDI; - strengthening science-policy interfaces by co-learning processes with external experts and developing recommendations for food systems R&I policies tailored to different geographies and sectors; - identifying the trigger pointsto help ‘unlock’system lock-ins and support further dynamics towards system transformation; - and applying reflective monitoring on all FOSTER’s co-learning activities to develop insights into how the KIS can be broadened from an agricultural-KIS to a food system-KIS. To inspire adoption of FOSTER learnings, over 20 workshops and a final conference will be conducted; scientific position papers and policy briefs will be widely communicated.
