The program will follow a multidisciplinary and integrated approach, allowing the students to acquire a proactive vision rooted into the scenario analysis, horizon scanning, and supply chain mapping.
The participants will acquire knowledge, skills and tools to fight against food fraud in the industrial environment, also considering the impact of the socio-economic drivers and the climate change on the global food system.
The course will bring together the most advanced technical skills from STEM and the methodological approach from social sciences, also considering the major certification schemes. Particular attention will be paid to communication to consumers.

In addition to recorded lessons, participants will be exposed to training material aimed at honing basic skills necessary to take part in the second phase.
2. a second phase of 4 days, in presence, from 7 to 10 May 2023. This phase will include lectures, followed by experiential and role playing activities. The involvement of foreign professors, or of Italian ones working abroad, will allow a broader overview of the state of the art in Europe and in the international context;
3. a third follow up phase by remote, from 11 May to 5 June 2023, to conclude and consolidate the notions assimilated during the School.
