What will be hot on restaurant menus in 2014? The National Restaurant Association, which surveyed more than 1,400 chefs, says the top three trends for next year will be locally sourced meats and seafood, locally grown produce and environmental sustainability. That’s welcome news for people who care about the health of the planet, but the chefs may have missed an even bigger change coming to the US diet – the decline of meat.

Glamur partners will gather in Rome at the end of February (26th – 28th) for their third project meeting. At the turn of the first Glamur year, the meeting will mainly focus on the following research areas: scoping & framing characterization (Delphi, National reports, overall report); case studies and quantitative data collection; the policy analysis preliminary results. The meeting will also include the second consultation with the Glamur expert forum. The external Glamur Advisory Board, composed by food chain actors, NGOs and some policy player will comment research preliminary findings and inspire further action. Additional experts, i.e. those operating within UN food and agriculture Agencies based in Rome, will be invited to broaden and deepen the project focus. The meeting will be hosted by FIRAB in the premises of the City of Alternative Economy (CAE), Rome, a place which per se has much to say on local food chains, hosting experiences of direct selling from regional organic producers.
