Leveraging Data and AI to Empower Citizens to Make Healthier and More Sustainable Food Choices
FoodScholar
Thanks to an intuitive natural-language interface, the FoodScholar app will allow users to simply ask questions about the nutritional content and environmental impact of the foods they consume. It will provide clear, trustworthy answers to help users make informed food choices.
RecipeWrangler
RecipeWrangler will analyse recipes for both nutritional value and environmental impact. It will provide detailed information about each recipe and allow users to adjust ingredients or cooking methods, offering healthier and more eco-friendly alternatives.
FoodChat
FoodChat will provide personalised meal plans and recipe suggestions tailored to users’ preferences. It will focus on reducing food waste while ensuring nutritious, balanced meals.
Living Labs
The applications will be co-designed and tested with citizens and other stakeholders in real-world settings through Living Labs in Ireland, Hungary, and Slovenia – three countries with diverse cultural and socio-economic characteristics, thus ensuring the solutions are relevant across different contexts.
