Although spaces of intersections rather than areas of divergence prevailed during the dialogue, some aspects raised different opinions from the participants. The first one is related to the perceived priorities to tackle in order to reduce gender disparities in agriculture. Some participants identified equality as the starting point for better implementation of SDG 5; others identified women empowerment as the most urgent aspect, others stressed the attention on productivity in agriculture. Different divergences arose when considering the needed actions to break down market barriers for women ... Подробнееin agriculture. With the participants being mainly aligned on the priorities to be achieved, divisions were identified when considering whether a top-down or a bottom-up approach is preferable to tackle problems in the most effective way. Some of the participants argued that policy is the first thing that needs to change, therefore suggesting the fundamental role of national governments and companies to act in favor of women empowerment in agriculture. Others pointed out that real change needs to start from people’s mentality. Different views arose also in the identification of which technologies and modalities can best ensure inclusion and equity for women in agriculture. Some participants stressed out that the use of mobile phones appeared not efficient in terms of increasing farming productivity and gender inclusion in specific geographical areas. Other participants pointed out the systematic approach that should be embraced by technologies, touching both farming practices and improved housing conditions as the sole way to ensure real equity. Other aspects of divergence dealt with the level of education to be ensured to women to guarantee both respect and a leading role within society, and an active presence in farming. In fact, with no doubt on the needed urgency to provide women more and better quality knowledge inputs and education, also in the form of reducing the drastic gap in digital literacy, some participants highlighted the concern that higher quality education often comes at the detriment of farming involvement, leading girls and women to avoid returning to the fields. This kind of concern was also exacerbated in disagreement among the speakers on the fact that women really want to have exactly what men have. Finally, some doubts were raised from the participants on the forms of the dialogue, as the best way to lead towards concrete and long-lasting actions. Скрыть

The Dialogue “DAWN of women in agriculture: technology as an enabler”, coordinated under the Project DAWN (Dairy, Agriculture, Women, Nutrition), a flagship initiative of MoooFarm, aimed at understanding how to empower small-scale women farmers starting from the reach that local projects such as DAWN can have in terms of real-life experience and effects. Women are undisputed actors in the global food system, both in developed and developing countries. However, despite formal data confirming the high rate of the female agricultural labor force, most of them still remain invisible workers in... Подробнее the eye of UN Agencies and the broader society. The reference is to female farmers, breeders, and fisherwomen who work informally, without being contractually employed, without receiving adequate compensation, or with extremely limited access to agricultural resources, improved seed varieties, equipment, information, education, credit, insurance, technologies compared to men. Gender inequality in agriculture remains one of the more significant areas of gender disparity worldwide and this phenomenon hits the North and the South of the globe, making it an urgent challenge to face. For this reason, the dialogue spotlighted the role of technologies as an enabling tool to ensure food security and food justice, through more effective forms of inclusion, equal productive employment, and decent work for all actors along the food value chain. The Dialogue started from on-ground assumptions of the Indian context but looked at global solutions. Through this two-way approach, it is possible to make the global food system more resilient and adaptive, starting from the urgency of leaving no one behind, for the sake of female farm returns and the broader agricultural production that, especially in developing countries, massively rely on the female role. From the observation of the current system failures and evidence we identified six sub-topics to be addressed during the Discussion Groups: 1. Women often remain excluded from information access, decision-making processes, and governance structures of dairy value chains. - How might technology enable women in agriculture to be included in the decision-making process for their family thus ensuring equal representation and overall progress for the family? 2. Women’s agricultural productivity and yields are 20 percent to 30 percent lower than men’s because of well-documented constraints such as restricted access to quality seeds, equipment, hired labor, technology, training, and markets. In addition, less than 5% of women own a cow in India. - How might technology enable women to own farm resources, thus boosting their agricultural productivity and profitability? 3. In low and middle-income countries, over 1.7 billion women do not own mobile phones. In cases where they do, they are less likely to make full use of their full suite of services. Although the use of mobile internet is increasing throughout India, only 28% of the rural internet users are women. - How might we enable women in agriculture to achieve digital literacy to help them utilize technology to its maximum potential thus making them independent? 4. Digitalization helps to connect women with advisory services, potentially removing middlemen or reducing labor burdens, providing market or legal information, and enabling financial transactions. - How might technology enable women in agriculture to break down market barriers(like access and financial advisory) thus encouraging local food systems? 5. In India 75 million women are engaged in the dairy sector, compared to 15 million men. Giving them access to technology has been proved to bring financial benefits in terms of income. - What would 2030 look like if ALL women small-scale dairy farmers have access to technology? 6. Gender inequality undermines progress toward sustainable agricultural development across multiple dimensions. - How might we enable women to be catalyzers of sustainable practices in agriculture and achieve increased carbon sequestration and neutrality?

The first conclusion that emerged from the Dialogue is that the current old mindset based on a rigid patriarchal approach is neither working nor beneficial to the whole community. Women, and especially women farmers, are proven to be keener on learning from each other, exchanging knowledge, and being more trusted by institutions. Overcoming this anachronistic attitude characterized by supposed weakness and exclusion from the decision-making process is more urgent than ever. A community-based approach might be more realistic and sustainable. Scaling through educational institutions and private ... Подробнееcorporations to invest in women who want to pursue and grow in agri-entrepreneurship or digital literacy could bring tangible transformations. With an increased focus on mentoring and training, women could get the training and tools they need to help other women in the fields. The second conclusion touches on the urgency of ensuring female access to basic education as the main step to promote gender equality in society. Education not just on the aspect of cultural awareness, but also on skill-building and machine handling knowledge from a practical perspective. Programs should accelerate the pathway, shaped by the surrounding ecosystem, towards both access and new structures on which education is conceived, considering their physical inclusion. Although moving in different directions, it is important to consider education and technology as intertwined, as technology could dramatically increase women’s access to knowledge and education, and at the same time, education is fundamental to completely understand the potential of technological solutions, as well as their functioning. The main solutions that came up at the intersection between these two elements were related to a peer-to-peer connection allowing women to share knowledge and experiences despite being far away from each other, therefore kick-starting a dialogue that empowers local women to be at the forefront of initiatives and solutions designed to help them. The third main conclusion deals with the relevance of providing gender-based solutions. To work in the long run, actions, programs, and technologies should be designed on women’s real needs, by women. This means creating a new interface design conceived to facilitate the use of technologies for women and new tools shaped on their position and daily activities. But it also means introducing programs and solutions tailor-made to the specific role that women have within the family. In developing countries like India, agriculture continues to absorb and employ the female workforce but fails to give them recognition of employed or hired labor. In these contexts, women mostly perform manual tasks like weeding. Advancements for reducing the heaviness of this type of work can be life-changing and increase productivity, starting a virtuous loop where productivity advancements, in turn, improve day-to-day life for female agricultural workers and also benefit their families and communities over the long term: female farmers who increase their income reinvest that money into the family’s health and education. The fourth conclusion is that the overall value of women increases on the supply chain level and when we move towards technology as an enabler for the 'Marketing linkages'. Women are adapting to the technology - faster - if given a chance! The only efficient way ahead is to optimize the channels of knowledge acquisition: access to the right information and providing them marketing linkages. Finally, we need to look beyond IT-enabled technology to envision women as Policy Decision Makers, providing practical insights, ownership, and the representation of the very gender for whom all the policies are being made.

GENDER EQUALITY: How might technology enable women in agriculture to be included in the decision-making process for their family thus ensuring equal representation and overall progress for the family? Equal inclusion of women in agriculture requires broader and better representation of women in the whole society. Besides being at the kitchen table, women are needed in leading positions: communication, decision-making, agricultural meetings, farmers gathering, traditionally represented by men. Men could play a crucial role, especially if they are more sensitized and aware that these kinds of ac... Подробнееtions may have positive impacts on the whole family and children. But also programs and national policy can be central in making agribusiness more attractive and better designed for women. Social platforms and social marketing too can play a central role, bringing women and female farmers together, letting them exchange knowledge, and learn from each other. Success is the best tool to assess progress, not income itself, because when female farmers are successful, other women are keen on learning from their example. Increasing productivity and, most of all, tracking the percentage of women leading farms on regenerative agriculture is therefore a must. However, traditional rule division and deep patriarchal society still represent a concrete challenge as these actions are implemented. Women are traditionally seen as weak individuals, while female empowerment can be regarded as a threat. Inclusion and better representation of women in society cannot be reached without female access to schools, this is the reason why training is conceived and provided amongst the most urgent actions. It is widely known that in many developing countries education is male-centered, even though women are taking care of everything else in real life. National policies and programs should accelerate female access to education, which is strictly related to women's respect from the whole society. The urgency to reverse the current mindset characterized by male superiority over women and lack of consideration of female knowledge starts with access to education. Also how training is conceived can ease women equality: to be targeted on women, education shall focus more on the ecosystem around them. This approach can be further strengthened by increasing the number of gatherings and events on education, shaped to make women feel safe. Access to land and technologies are additional urgent actions when dealing with women’s equal entitlement. If for the land the issue starts with ownership, for technologies the challenge concerns both access and ability to use. This explains why participants stressed, among the most needed activities, the promotion of a systematic use of technologies through specific programs, in support of farming activities and to increase income, from housing improvement to better mobility. Given the severe and widespread gender digital divide, also for technologies, just as education, their design should not forget to embrace the whole environment characterizing women's daily activities. Both the housing dimension and their farming role should be therefore equally considered to reach outstanding benefits for women and the community as a whole. Скрыть

PRODUCTIVITY: How might technology enable women to own farm resources thus boosting their agricultural productivity and profitability? Inequality in women’s yields has a lot to do with social norms, less quality of inputs and less ability to access and get resources, inevitably bringing to lower yields for women. In most cases land owned by men is over-fertilized, whilst land that is owned by women receives fewer resources. This gender inequality has seeped so strongly into people's mindset that the agricultural sector itself is mainly conceived as a man’s sector and society does not embra... Подробнееce the vision of women owning resources. The fact that most women are not educated adds on to the problems. In many dairy programs all over the world, aimed at pushing towards higher yields or higher productivity, more inputs are required and more loans have to be taken. However, women's lack of financial literacy brings the system in favor of men. Indeed, many existing solutions, like mechanization programs, tend to indirectly push women out because they usually do not meet the collateral requirements of such programs: land ownership, financial resources, and investment knowledge and capacity. Hence, even if the programs are meant to be inclusive, the design of such programs tends to make them unequal: women’s output is equal to women’s input. The participants agreed that before we address the issue of providing women with technology and mechanization, we first need to bridge that gap of literacy. Added to this, women need to be involved right from the design and investment phase of the programs they should benefit from. To make sure that women can actually have a voice in what technology they want to actually get benefits from it is important to understand the subtleness of gender relations. If not, even a women-oriented solution could eventually benefit men and feed the vicious loop, leaving women out of it. One more piece of evidence that needs to be taken into account is that not all women want to own a farm. An ever-increasing number of women prefer working on value addition tasks rather than working on the field, due to the heavy physical labor required in the tasks they are assigned to. Giving women a bigger voice to express what they want, what their aspirations are, and where they see empowerment coming from is therefore crucial. In many cases, female farmers lack recognition from local communities and the government for their accomplishments and farm work. A solution could be a database of female farmers who are at different stages of their farming activities, to better map the diverse needs. This would help in giving the right inputs to the right people through the activatable programs. Скрыть

DIGITAL LITERACY: How might we enable women in agriculture to achieve digital literacy to help them utilize technology to its maximum potential thus making them independent? There is a need to visualize in detail the digital ecosystem regionally, and women as its key users to build our own and others’ understanding of it. People designing the digital platform should take into consideration the transparent evidence-based research approach. Digitalization can help shape a more sustainable future with evidence-based solutions, contributing at the same time to a more tangible transformation. But... Подробнее to reach the full potential of digital solutions, it must be user-centric. Technology can answer most difficulties farmers face. It can assist them with predicting climate all the more precisely, decrease the uncertainty, increase yield, and their net profit margins. In dairy farming, community-oriented connections need to be developed to do that to exponentially engage more purpose-oriented users. Bringing women into the design process is crucial to increase productivity, profitability, and adaptability to specific contexts: to empower women to stand for themselves, female farmers should be able to decide which technologies they want to use according to their interests and concrete role, before making sure they could benefit from such tools.

MARKET BARRIERS: How might technology enable women in agriculture to break down market barriers (like market access and financial advisory) thus encouraging local food systems? Addressing proper education is the key enabler element for the empowerment of women to enter the markets. First of all, proper education is needed from the side of people who actually want to help solve the problem at any level. In order to provide concrete help and impact in a specific context, it is necessary to have extensive knowledge of such context and the mechanisms that govern it. In this sense, starting off fro... Подробнееm our local ecosystem or basing solutions on the consultancy of a local partner is fundamental to make sure no issue or obstacle is left behind, and no energy or resources are wasted on addressing issues that do not represent a priority. Moving on, education strategies need to be boosted also in the local context where we want to unlock market access for women. This will pass to different dimensions of intervention. The first important element is related to using education to break down the cultural stereotypes that are related to the agricultural sector, and it being envisioned mainly as a “men thing”. In this dialogue, it’s fundamental to stop positioning women in a comparison with men, and start thinking about the unique skills and perspectives that they can bring to the table, therefore improving the whole performance and efficiency of the sector. This is a key ingredient to unlock real innovation. Then, of course, education efforts need to be addressed directly to the women we want to help. It’s important for them to know how to differentiate their product in the market so as for it to be impossible to be ignored, to know how to access credit, and to know where to find concise and down-to-earth information about the context they’re operating in. Two elements are perceived as critical in order to attain this goal. The first is an intervention at the policy level, able to generate a wide impact and take full-on responsibility for the education of women. Each country needs to step in, but many companies can also help by starting from their own best practices and striving to disseminate them into the market. The second important aspect necessary to achieve these educational goals is leveraging technological solutions to create a connection network between women from the same area and different parts of the world. This is critical to allow for knowledge flows, making sure women learn from one another and join forces to create a change in their contexts. The impact of the pandemic on remote learning modalities could definitely be a blessing in this sense if channeled properly towards positive solutions. Скрыть

The new EU regulation is a great opportunity for policy making and business practices to improve animal welfare in China. Industry-standards, labelling, education all play an important role in the transition.

From a policy making perspective: 1. To promote animal welfare, it is important to take into account the interests of all stakeholders and achieve win-win results. 2. China should take incremental and phased steps to keep up with the international trend. 3. China and Europe would acknowledge each other’s animal welfare standards and expand areas for cooperation. 4. China's western region is more suitable for grazing than for growing crops. The Animal Freedom Indexes (AFI) of cattle, sheep and chicken raised by herders are very high, so these are all highwelfare farming products. 5. The impor...

From a business practices perspective 1. China seemed to have produced more animal products than needed. Improving farming to meet export standards is an opportunity for Chinese farming enterprises in the years to come. 2. So long as companies transform themselves in a timely manner, the EU’s resolution can be a great opportunity for Chinese companies rather than a threat. 3. Transformation took time and those quick to take action could get better market returns.

From a public engagement perspective 1. It is essential to be active, respectful, understanding, and cooperative. 2. The need to find specific communication narratives for different target groups. 3. Public communication should return to the animals themselves. Rebuilding the humananimal relationship among youths, leveraging science to boost animal welfare, and bringing humanistic care and concern to science. 4.

This dialogue focused on opportunities for China and the EU to collaborate on animal welfare and food system transformation from the perspectives of policy making, business practices, and public engagement.

Animal welfare is not an isolated issue, but is closely related to climate change, environmental issues, and public health. Improving animal welfare will drive breakthroughs in a series of urgent social issues

• The global pandemic has shown us that environmental health, animal health, and human health are closely intertwined, and this awareness must form the core of future plans and actions. • Improving animal welfare is not the only result that will be achieved--these measures will also reduce the probability of food crisis, improve public health and make the food system more resilient. • Consumption of meat alternatives will increase 35% by 2040. • The significance and value of the global Meatless Monday movement, and expressed her anticipation for China to promote this movement in the fu... Подробнееture. Production: 1. Reducing the consumption of animal products can effectively reduce our carbon, water, and land footprints while adjusting the proportions of different meat sources we consume can also reduce the environmental footprint. The environmental footprint of plant-based diets is much smaller than that of omnivorous diets. 2. Chinese enterprises need to pay attention to the dynamics of carbon trading markets and carbon tax. The transformation of the industry towards low-carbon consumption and production will also reduce businesses’ carbon tax burden. 3. Improving the management of aquaculture can significantly reduce the emissions of active nitrogen pollutants, benefiting individuals, society, the economy, and the environment. 4. If meat consumption can follow the example of grassland yaks and other local varieties, it will reduce the demand for industrialized animal agriculture systems and promote regional pastoral economies and independent herders. Consumption: 1. Dietary change starting with urban and high-income populations can bring more obvious environmental benefits. 2. Real “good meat” must be the product of high-welfare animal farming practices. 14 animal welfare products have been included on the list--an important step towards the marketization of high-welfare animal products in China. 3. New plant-based meat products are gradually emerging in catering and retail markets, and multinational corporations and food giants are also entering the Chinese plant-based meat market. By expanding production scale and increasing output, costs can be reduced, and more consumers can enjoy safe, delicious, affordable and healthy plant-based meat products. Скрыть

This dialogue dove deep into the crucial role of animal welfare improvement in the transformation of the food system from both the production and consumption sides and explored how to guide people toward a healthier and sustainable diet.

Les résultats de la concertation sont exposés par thème et d'une façon synthétique dans le chapitre suivant "Outcomes des groupes de discussion". On a Cinq thèmes thème 1 :- Nexus alimentation, nutrition et santé pour les citoyens de la ville de Tunis. S’alimenter est un geste naturel quotidien qui peut paraître anodin et qui détermine en réalité une grande part de notre santé. Nous sommes de ce fait amenés à relever des défis majeurs afin de garantir l’adéquation entre notre alimentation et notre santé.Dans l'un des arrondissements communaux de la ville de Tunis (El Mour... Подробнееouj 2), l'analyse de 27 plats a démontré que près de 52 % sont malsains contre seulement 15 % de plats sains. En tant que signataire du "Milan urbanfoodpolicypact", la Municipalité de Tunis vise à offrir à ces citoyens une alimentation saine, suffisante, à la portée et abordable. Autant d’enjeux qui se retrouvent dans plusieurs des Objectifs du Développement Durable, dont les cibles sont fixées pour 2030 et particulièrement les ODD n°2 : Faim « zéro » ; n°3 : Bonne santé et bien-être, n°11 : Villes et communautés durables. Dans le cadre de cet axe, trois pistes d'actions ont été analysées : 1 : Améliorer l’accès aux fruits et légumes et aux produits laitiers pour encourager et augmenter leurs consommations. 2 : Améliorer la qualité nutritionnelle des menus offerts à la population. 3 : Intégrer la nutrition et la sécurité alimentaire dans le plan de développement local. Toutefois, ces pistes d'actions se doivent de tenir compte de défis et enjeux majeurs, à savoir : la difficulté de garantir des prix abordables des fruits et légumes et des produits laitiers ; la difficulté de préserver la qualité des fruits et légumes et produits laitiers pour des périodes prolongées ; la difficulté de multiplier les points de vente du producteur au consommateur ; l'impossibilité de contrôler les menus des restaurants (et fastfood) qui dépasse les prérogatives de la municipalité de Tunis ; la difficulté de fournir des menus nutritifs à des prix encourageants comparativement aux prix relativement bas pratiqués par les fast-foods ; la nécessité de changer les habitudes/préférences alimentaires des tunisois (moins de graisse, moins de sel, moins de sucre) ; la lenteur du processus d’intégration de la nutrition et de la sécurité alimentaire dans le plan de développement: faible implication de certains acteurs, déficit de l’approche participative. Des initiatives ont pourtant pu être lancées dans la ville de Tunis, comme celle du point de vente du producteur au consommateur à El Mourouj 2. Pareille expérience a prouvé son efficacitédès que plusieurs parties prenantes ont entamé une collaboration (CRDA de Tunis, Municipalité, citoyens, société civile). Ainsi, le groupe de travail a identifié une série de solutions et d'actions à promouvoir, notamment : améliorer l’accessibilité à des produits alimentaires sains en multipliant les points de vente du producteur au consommateur et en privilégiant les circuits commerciaux courts afin de garantir des prix abordables aux populations à faible revenu. Encourager la vente des fruits et légumes dans les épiceries et améliorer l'accès aux marchés existants sont également des actions souhaitables à court terme et à coûts relativement réduits/ pouvant être entreprises immédiatement ; favoriser et encourager l’agriculture urbaine et péri-urbaine et implanter des potagers éducatifs dans les jardins d’enfants ; multiplier le contrôle d’hygiène dans les établissements de vente de denrées alimentaires et renforcer la traçabilité et le respect de la règlementation relative à l’étiquetage ; la sensibilisation des citoyens est une action incontournable afin d’améliorer les habitudes alimentaires des tunisois, grâce à l'usage des médias de masse et des réseaux sociaux ; des programmes d'aide aux restaurants avec l'appui de nutritionnistes (assistance technique, promotion, compétition) pourra les motiver à proposer des menus améliorés et plus sains ; réactivation des cantines au niveau des jardins d’enfants municipaux tout en veillant à ce qu’elles servent des menus sains et nutritifs.

Подробнее'urbanisation galopante de Tunis qui attire depuis toujours une masse significative de nouveaux résidents, les terres agricoles s'amenuisent au profit de quartiers nouveaux. La pollution de l’environnement et de l’eau d’arrosage altère aussi bien la quantité que la qualité des produits agricoles qui perdent de leur compétitivité. Le manque d'eau d'irrigation et les doutes qui planent sur la qualité des eaux usées, détournent les promoteurs désirant s'orienter à l'agriculture urbaine et périurbaine. Le coût relativement élevé de la main-d'œuvre spécialisée dans les zones urbaines affecte la rentabilité des projets agricoles quand ceux-là existent. Par ailleurs, sur un plan structurel, la planification urbaine ne tient pas compte de la pratique de l'agriculture urbaine durable et n'accorde que très peu ou pas d'importance à l'ancrage et à l'intégration territoriale de ce genre de pratique. La ville de Tunis ne manque pas pourtant de petits projets d'agriculture urbaine et périurbaine : des petites fermes de permaculture persistent et certaines voient le jour.Desjardins de quartiers gérés par les syndics sont présents sporadiquement et plusieurs ménages pratiquent le compostage individuel. Des associations mènent avec succès des expériences (à titre indicatif, l'espace éducatif pour la culture des potagers, du compostage et de l’apiculture au parc Belvédère aménagé par l'association AAB en collaboration avec la Municipalité de Tunis). Le groupe de travail a proposé une série d’actions à promouvoir, notamment : * intégrer l’agriculture urbaine et périurbaine dans les plans et programmes urbains et renforcement de la législation et de la réglementation en faveur de la préservation et de la promotion de l’AUP et des espaces naturels, paysagers et de biodiversité en milieu urbain et périurbain ;*promouvoir les expériences et initiatives citoyennes et entrepreneuriales et valoriser les projets pilotes de l’AUP et encourager les startups et assurer leur insertion harmonieuse dans le milieu urbain ;* généraliser et valoriser les initiatives et projets en cours, portés par la Municipalité (les jardins communautaires) et installer des jardins collectifs en assurant leur gestion durable et encourager les jardins familiaux et de quartier ainsi que toutes pratiques privées de l’AU par les citoyens ;* promouvoir les pratiques agricoles respectueuses de l’environnement et de la biodiversité et de gestion des déchets (composte,...) et de mobilisation des ressources ; * former et sensibiliser sur les bénéfices et la multifonctionnalité et la diversité des activités marchandes et non marchandes de l’agriculture urbaine et périurbaine (environnementale, gestion des déchets, développement économique et social, éducative, récréative, paysagère, d’aménagement urbain, etc.) ainsi que leur rôle social de paysage et de bien-être et de qualité de vie ;* créer et consolider un réseau ou portail d'opérateurs ou plateformes pour l’agriculture urbaine favorisant les échanges d'expériences et de projets réussis et encourager l’organisation des opérateurs dans des groupements et associations ; * élaborer des programmes pédagogiques afin de promouvoir l'AUP et développer des projets et activités pédagogiques (visites organisées, jardins et animation et autres) ;* Proposer un programme national de mise en valeur et d’exploitation des espaces disponibles pour la permaculture ;* Inciter les institutions financières à promouvoir ce secteur et à faciliter l’accès au financement des projets ;*Organiser les marchés communaux en favorisant la commercialisation des produits agricoles de proximité Скрыть

En terme d'acquis, il existe une plateforme en ligne "code online"qui offre, à douze millions de consommateurs, le moyen de suivre les prix des produits frais 7/24 et de participer directement à la lutte contre la hausse anarchiquedes prix de détail dans les marchés limitrophes. La pandémie de la Covid-19 a par ailleurs obligé plusieurs entreprises à créer le service de livraison à domicile de produits alimentaires. Les recommandations qui ressortent du groupe de travail portent sur des point divers, aussi bien stratégiques que opérationnels. A moyen terme, la Municipalité de Tunis visera à : * augmenter le nombre des marchés périodiques et renforcer la présence des produits frais dans les marchés de proximité ; * améliorer la visibilité des produits labélisés bio ; * intégrer les commerçants ambulants dans le circuit formel ; * accompagner le changement des formes associatives ; * promouvoir l’émergence des villes intelligentes orientées vers les besoins des consommateurs. A court terme, des opérations pourraient être engagées, telles : * l'organisation d'espaces dédiés aux producteurs pour des ventes directes dans les marchés municipaux ; * mener des campagnes de sensibilisation ; * intégrer les produits locaux (huile d’olive et dérivés, produits frais, fromages...) dans les menus des cantines scolaires ; * revoir impérativement les lois régissant les plateformes et sites de commerce électronique pour une meilleure approche prix/services ; * mettre en ligne une plateforme de collecte des réclamations consommateur ; * coacher les acteurs de la chaine d’approvisionnement alimentaire sur le digital ; * former les SMSA (société Mutuelle des Services Agricoles) pour faciliter l’écoulement des produits.

En coopération avec des communes de villes espagnoles, l'association a offert aux femmes artisanes un espace de vente de leurs produits frais à des prix abordables. La promotion de l'ESS et sa contribution dans les ODD nécessitent des actions préalables tels : l'inventaire des terrains municipaux exploitables et disponibles pour l’agriculture urbaine et s’assurer de la disponibilité des systèmes d’arrosage ; mettre en place des mécanismes d'appui aux jeunes chômeurs pour les aider à lancer des microprojets (des pépinières, des jardins communautaires, etc.) ; inciter les privés à exploiter leurs jardins privés (les jardins des résidences et les toits comme jardins botaniques) et prévoir des mesures d’encouragement (par ex. des prix annuels) ; assurer des formations en jardinage au profit des jeunes afin qu’ils puissent intégrer ce programme ; favoriser des démarches de coopération entre les divers acteurs soutenant les initiatives solidaires.

Sur le plan du cadre légal et réglementaire, le groupe recommande de : mettre en place un cadre réglementaire pour la lutte contre le gaspillage alimentaire, qui prévoit par exemple une sur taxation des déchets en fonction du poids pour tous les acteurs (ménages, détaillants, restaurateurs), un système de récompense/exemption de paiement de taxes pour les acteurs qui valorisent ou réduisent leurs déchets alimentaires (créer des incitations et des sanctions). Dans le domaine de l'IEC (Information, éducation, communication) visant un changement social, il a été proposé de : officialiser l’éducation environnementale et l’éducation à la consommation en tant que matières principales dans les programmes scolaire; élaborer des programmes de sensibilisation qui émanent directement des propositions et des réflexions des enfants et qui sont adaptés à leurs besoins réels ; lancer des actions de communicationpartenariales et multimédias destinées à tous les acteurs concernés sur les méthodes de conservation, d’emballage ou de recyclage des aliments ; renforcer les capacités des parties prenantes sur les techniques de gestion et traitement des déchets (formation des formateurs sur l’économie circulaire, le gaspillage, la valorisation des déchets). La formation des détaillants et des restaurateurs dans la bonne gestion des commandes et les facteurs essentiels du gaspillage alimentaire. Sur le plan plutôt opérationnel, le groupe propose de : généraliser l’expérience du compostage (comme celle de l’INAT) et sensibiliser les parties prenantes à l’utilité du compostage et dupliquer l’expérience de l’INC dans la réduction de gaspillage du pain en installant des "gâchimètres" au niveau des cantines scolaires et des restaurants universitaires ; mettre en place un système de tri des déchets où les déchets organiques doivent être envoyés à un site désigné pour être compostés dans chaque région.
