Plenary Session in Ukraine Strengthens TRUSTFOOD Training and Community Engagement!

On May 23rd, as part of Course Module 12 of the TRUSTFOOD training programme in Ukraine, a special online plenary session was held to engage directly with participants of the Blockchain and Traceability course.

The interactive session created space for an open Q&A with learners, enabling them to raise practical and conceptual questions about the use of blockchain in the agri-food sector — a core focus of the TRUSTFOOD project. Facilitators provided real-time answers, shared case-based insights, and helped clarify key aspects of the course content to strengthen participants’ understanding of how traceability systems powered by emerging technologies can support food safety and transparency.

Beyond deepening knowledge, this session also served as an opportunity to broaden TRUSTFOOD’s network within Ukraine, connecting the course community with other stakeholders and organisations interested in digital innovation in food systems. These new connections are expected to play a vital role in disseminating the course further, reaching more professionals, students, and SMEs across the country.

This successful engagement reflects TRUSTFOOD’s commitment not only to delivering high-quality training, but also to building inclusive, informed, and connected communities around food innovation.
