Spanish Gastronomy Congress 2025
Description
The event, organized by the Royal Academy of Gastronomy of Spain in collaboration with the CEU University Institute "Food and Society," will take place from March 27 to 29, 2025 , at the CEU San Pablo University in Madrid.
The central axis of the SPAIN GASTRONOMY CONFERENCE is defined by the fact that the concept of gastronomy as an eminently recreational activity has become somewhat obsolete and that the other dimensions of the value chain of gastronomic activities, which encompass production, distribution, preparation, consumption and waste management, must be taken into account from a multidisciplinary and international perspective.
Therefore, the objective of the Conference is to address from a scientific, academic, and professional perspective this new social, economic, psychological, medical, and cultural context of this new interpretation of gastronomy, where the criteria of sustainable production and healthy eating naturally complement the traditional concept of enjoyment associated with gastronomy.
For this reason, we will bring together researchers, scholars, and professionals from different fields of science, academic disciplines, research networks, and policy areas to discuss this new framework for defining gastronomy as a holistic activity, with a primary focus on nutrition, health, and sustainability.
