Topic 1: The way towards sustainable and resilient food systems
Our RISE Teams brings a diverse skill set that can significantly contribute to the success of any project, particularly in the areas of social life cycle assessment and stakeholder engagement. We are proficient in conducting both qualitative and quantitative social life cycle assessments (S-LCA), which allow to measure and evaluate the societal impacts of projects across various stages. This enables the identification of potential positive and negative effects on communities, labor, and other social factors. Additionally, we are experienced in stakeholder engagement, ensuring that the perspectives and concerns of all relevant parties are integrated into the decision-making process. This collaborative approach helps in creating more sustainable and socially responsible projects. These methods can be applied both for Topic 1 ans Topic 3 projects.
