EUFIC membership
A diversity of organisations join EUFIC as members, ranging from universities, healthcare professional associations, civil society organisations to private sector companies. Their joint fees enable EUFIC to implement activities for the benefit of people.
Our funding and transparency page explains why we work with different organisations from the public and private sector and what mechanisms we have put in place to maintain independence and ensure that our activities remain impartial, evidence-based, and focused on the public good, regardless of our sources of funding.
Benefits of becoming a member
Joining EUFIC’s Membership Program offers a range of valuable benefits to foster collaboration and knowledge-sharing across sectors.
- Raising the profile of science: Support EUFIC’s mission to deliver impartial, evidence-based information on food and health.
- Combatting misinformation: Few sectors are as vulnerable to myths and misinformation as the food and health sectors. EUFIC ‘Food Facts’ reports and myth-busting work redress incorrect information appearing in the media. EUFIC also works on building bridges between journalists and experts and organises online events on topics appearing regularly in the media.
- Staying ahead of trends: Gain insights into the latest developments in food science, nutrition and health research, and consumer behaviour.
- Networking and gateway to EU Projects: Engage and participate in EU Projects to further support responsible research and innovation efforts. EUFIC’s role as a convener and facilitator of science-based discussion provides a neutral ground to exchange with other stakeholders.
- Consumer Research: EUFIC ensures members stay informed with a steady stream of up-to-date information from diverse research groups.
