CHANCE - FP7 project addressing poor nutrition in risk of poverty populations in Europe

From evidence base to food products
Successful development of attractive and affordable food products addressing nutritional problems in at risk of poverty people requires a solid evidence.
In the initial phase of the CHANCE project, this necessary evidence base is constructed. On this is then built development and assessment of CHANCE ingredients and food products.

Healthy food options for people at risk of poverty
2012-02-01
Living on the poverty line is not only associated with poor economy, but with other problems such as nutrition-related illnesses. This is the area in which the new European Commission-funded project CHANCE (“Low cost technologies and traditional ingredients for the production of affordable, nutritionally correct foods improving health in population groups at risk of poverty”) wants to make a difference. Together, researchers and industry partners will develop appealing and affordable food products that can help to prevent nutritional problems in European population groups at risk of poverty.
