The first Steering Committee meeting took place at Consiglio per la Ricerca e la Sperimentazione in Agricoltora (CRA) Institute, former INRAN. The meeting was a great opportunity to get an update on progress, and for feedback on the quality manual and the publication guidelines. The objectives for the first period have been achieved, and the milestones and deliverables provided by each work package. The partners have worked hard together to ensure the project is off to a great start; already aspects of the project are moving towards consistent methods. How to realise these needs, particularly practical implementation (e.g. food coding), was addressed during this meeting.
