The 1st Workshop on Sustainable Food Consumption with a focus on “Facts, Trends, Objectives, Actors, Systems” takes place on 21-22 October 2010 in Vienna, Austria, on the premises of the Austrian Ministry of Environment. More than 50 participants from all over Europe – researchers, policy-makers and civil society representatives (see list of participants) – engaged in two days of intensive discussion of current issues in the field. The agenda of the event is available here.  The specific aims of the workshop were to
