With around 150,000 meals served daily, the service has a significant impact on all three pillars of sustainability: social, economic and environmental.<\/p>\n<p>On a social level, it helps combat food poverty, promotes inclusion and fosters food education initiatives. From an economic perspective, the procurement system activates and guides a production chain with tangible benefits for the local area. On the environmental front, the extensive use of organic, PDO and PGI products supports more sustainable and high-quality agricultural models.<\/p>\n<p>The conference presents the initial findings of an innovative study that provides an integrated analysis of the impacts of school catering in Rome, offering a systemic overview of the value generated by the service. Building on this case study, the meeting opens a discussion on methods for assessing the impact of school canteens, with the aim of strengthening the role of public food procurement as a strategic lever for sustainable, inclusive and quality-oriented food policies.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221;
