Collaborative Governance Model #08: Open Food Network

This document presents Open Food Network, an open-source platform active in 20 countries, including Italy, that helps small producers sell online, manage stock and run virtual farmers’ markets, combined with training and incubation. It closes with a replicability questionnaire to help readers assess whether a similar initiative could work in their own region. Developed within the EU4Advice project, it presents the findings of Deliverable D4.1 “Multi-actor collaboration dynamics and capacity building network inside and between AKIS to foster the up-scaling of SFSCs across Europe” in a more accessible format for policymakers, advisors and producers.
