Research Platform

EFSA’s Research Platform is home to the food safety research community. It aims to support project ideas, promote consortia formation, and help scientists find opportunities for public research funding in food safety.

The platform was created in response to a request for better coordination in the area of food safety research at EFSA’s first Risk Assessment Research Assembly (RARA), where participants called on EFSA to be a knowledge-broker between scientists and policy makers.

The platform offers access to the following tools:

Funding Programmes

Discover international funding opportunities related to food safety

Upcoming calls

Monitor upcoming calls related to food safety

National funding opportunities

Find funding opportunities at national level

Knowledge Centre

Browse a selection of key policy and strategy papers

Partner search. There are useful websites to help you find partners or express your interest to participate in consortia. In addition, EFSA has a large network of competent organisations and researchers we work with. To find partners in your country, please contact your national EFSA Focal Point.
