Wageningen University & Research is organizning a Course The Proteins of the Future.
Proteins form an important part of diets for humans and animals. However, the proteins we currently consume can contribute to environmental degradation. Alternative proteins are needed to shift to more sustainable, equitable and balanced protein supply and use. Do you want to gain a broad understanding of the availability, potential uses and acceptance of alternative protein sources such as insects, algae and plant proteins? How can they be used in human food and animal feed? What is their current status
and how promising are they for your future business? Then this course is something for you!

Wageningen University & Research is organizing a Summer School Insects as Food and Feed.
The field of rearing insects for human food and animal feed is new and exciting. There are many challenges in bringing insects on the market. How can we rear insects in a sustainable way with low environmental impact and contribute to a circular economy? What type of production design and facilities are needed to farm and process insects in an optimal way? Is it economically an interesting solution? By attending this Summer School you will explore a new alternative protein source with a
potential to play a major role in creating a circular food chain and to contribute in solving the world`s food problem.
