Food Defence - Deterring, detecting and mitigating attacks agaist the food system
The overall vision of this research centre is to 1) establish and institutionalise food defence as a research field in Sweden, 2) strengthen the operative capacity of relevant authorities, 3) increase the awareness and resilience of crucial private sector operators. We do so through creating and executing new knowledge on how to deter, detect and mitigate consequences of intentional attack attempting to impair Sweden’s food supply, as an act of war or terror.
