The Impact
TRUST-FOOD transformed complex technologies into practical trainings for real agri-food businesses
The challenge
Many SMEs were unfamiliar with Blockchain and hesitant about digital innovation.
The project needed to simplify complex technologies and make them practical for real agri-food businesses. DEDEP.eu supported the project in retrospectively identifying and better defining the challenges and barriers through a dedicated workshop where a series of templates of the DEDEP.eu D&E operational framework were validated.
The project created 20 specialised courses in 7 languages through an interactive e-learning platform.
The solution
- Targeted user outreach and messaging
- Simplified storytelling on course content and impact
- Interactive videos and quizzes to ensure engagement
- Tracked user performance and feedback
- Incentives for course completion through certification
- Multichannel dissemination including events, social media
TRUST-FOOD taught us that effective dissemination means more than sharing results—it’s about building trust, connecting people, and making digital tools accessible. By equipping agri-food SMEs with digital skills, we’re fostering a more transparent and resilient food supply chain
...and Why it matters
TRUST-FOOD became a DEDEP.eu Inspiring Story thanks to its strong dissemination strategy and measurable training impact.
The project demonstrated how storytelling, accessible communication and stakeholder engagement can increase adoption of complex digital technologies.
Its lessons learned now help other DEP projects improve dissemination, exploitation and long-term sustainability across Europe.
