RESHAPE – fremmedgørelse og fødevarer
RESHAPE er et EU forskningsprojekt, hvor vi kigger på hvordan mennesker og fødevaresystemer kan genforbindes igennem systemer med fokus på dyrevelfærd, hvor landskabspleje, klimavenlighed, ernæringsværdi optimeres; og glæden ved at spise således styrkes.
Projektets varighed er 36 måneder fra april 2026 til marts 2029 med syv partnere i seks lande, det er støttet af EUs FutureFoodS Partnership (European partnership for a sustainable Future of Food Systems) og Demonstrationsprogram (GUDP) under Ministeriet for Fødevarer, Landbrug og Fiskeri med et samlet budget på ca. 14m DKK

The project RESHAPE is co-funded by GUDP and the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme via FutureFoodS, the European Partnership for a Sustainable Future of Food Systems, co-funded under Grant Agreement No. 101136361.

I det danske living lab arbejder SDU tæt sammen med Foreningen for Holistisk Planlagt Afgræsning (HOPLA) og Videnscenter for Holistisk Management med fokus på kvæg som værdifulde allierede partnere i naturpleje og naturnærende landskabning.
I de systemer vi evaluerer og formidler ser og forstår vi læder, knogler, oksekød og andre nyttige dele af koen som et udtryk for landskabets taknemmelighed og ikke et primært produkt.
Arbejder du med kvæg i naturnære systemer og har lyst til at dele viden, erfaring og være med til at formidle og forklare at koen i stalden, der spiser soja fra regnskoven intet har med den rotationsafgræssende ko, der altid går ude, at gøre, så skriv til os!
Som del af vores kontinuerlige eksperimentation med metoden ‘living lab’ vil vi finde synergier med UNMEASURED og LIFT samt selvfølgelig partnerne i RESHAPE konsortiet:
- Centro Superior de Investigaciones Científicas – Estación Biológica de Doñana
- Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
- WU Vienna University of Economics and Business
- University of Córdoba – Instituto de Sociología y Estudios Campesinos
- Syddansk Universitet
- Bogazici University

RESHAPEs udgangspunkt:
Urbanisering, specialisering og industrialiserede, globalt sammenkoblede fødevaresystemer har skabt større afstand mellem mennesker og den mad, de spiser. Når forbindelsen mellem mennesker, produktion, landskab og værdikæder svækkes, bliver det også sværere at skabe bæredygtige, retfærdige og robuste fødevaresystemer. RESHAPE vil derfor undersøge, hvordan denne afstand kan mindskes gennem nye former for samarbejde, viden, deltagelse og værdiforandring.
RESHAPE skal munde ud i ny viden, nye værktøjer og nye politiske og praktiske handlemuligheder. Projektet vil levere indsigt i miljømæssige hotspots i værdikæder, sociale og kulturelle værdier omkring mad, forskellige styringsformer og muligheder for at skabe mere retfærdige og robuste forbindelser mellem mennesker og fødevaresystemer. Derudover vil RESHAPE formidle resultater bredt gennem hjemmeside, sociale medier, videoer, policy briefs, udstillinger, interaktive formater og videnskabelige publikationer. Projektet sigter mod at bidrage til både lokal, national og europæisk politikudvikling, blandt andet i relation til CAP, CFP, Farm to Fork og den europæiske Green Deal.
