D4.1 - Multi-actor collaboration dynamics and capacity building network inside and between AKIS to foster the up-scaling of SFSCs across Europe

This deliverable provides an overview of successful practices across Europe that support the development of short food supply chains (SFSCs). It identifies key regulatory approaches and collaborative models that help overcome common barriers faced by small-scale producers, such as limited market access, lack of infrastructure, and complex regulations. By analysing these cases, the report offers practical guidelines and recommendations for policymakers, advisors, and stakeholders to replicate and adapt these solutions in different contexts, ultimately strengthening more sustainable, local, and resilient food systems.
