Based on consultations and interactions with >70 organizations in the food systems and biodiversity space during 2024, we developed a collective plan for 2025 with four main activities to further bridge biodiversity and food systems as a community. We would like to take you along in those plans and hope to hear about your energy on where you think you can connect and contribute.

This week, through an interview with Rosemarie Slobbe, the director of Hemus, we explore the activities of two inspiring Dutch Lighthouse farms, ERF BV and Hemus. These farms are closely connected and actively generating both theoretical and practical knowledge on nature-inclusive farming. They are also promoting the implementation of nature-based solutions to foster the integration of nature and agriculture in the Netherlands.

The Netherlands Food Partnership (NFP) recognizes the vital role of biodiversity in building sustainable, resilient, and nutritious food systems. To advance this agenda, NFP partnered with Wageningen University & Research (WUR) to explore opportunities for linking biodiversity and food systems, taking sustainable and healthy diets as a key entry point. The insights from this assignment offer guidance on the support required and highlight concrete opportunities for initiatives and potential partnerships in this critical area. These insights are not only valuable to NFP but are also essential for our broader network, which is why we are committed to sharing them widely.
