The Stakeholder Advisory Board (SHAB)
The stakeholder advisory board has been established to advice the JPI and to ensure an adequate exchange of information with other political bodies and stakeholders in the field of food & health.
The stakeholders advisory board is a communication platform of all relevant stakeholders and thus facilitates a close network between all relevant actors in the following research areas:
- Citizens, Diet and Behaviour
