WATSON’s Work Package 2 Progress
The tasks of Work Package 2 entitled “Socioeconomic Methodologies, Tools and Approaches for Prevention of Food Fraud” are in full progress.
Task leaders SINTEF Nord (SIN), Humboldt University of Berlin (Hub), National Technical University of Athens (NTU), Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FIB), and University College Dublin (UCD) through a series of meetings, have developed the questionnaires and the methodological approach for the interviews and data collection within WP’s tasks T2.1, T2.2, T2.3, T2.4, and T2.5.
The interviews will start in June 2023 and will be completed in September 2023. They will take place across the six supply chains covered by the project: wine, fish, meat, olive oil, honey, dairy products and cereals. Through these interviews information is expected to be gathered regarding:
Mapping Key Actors’ Expectations for Authenticity and Traceability in Food Systems (T2.1)
Socioeconomic Drivers of Food Fraud and Behavioural Analysis of Food Criminals (T2.2)
GAP Analysis of Systems Used to Combat Food Fraud (T2.3)
Food Fraud Vulnerability Assessment in EU Food Systems (T2.4)
Social and Ethical Aspects of Systemic Innovations for Authenticity and Traceability of Food Products (T2.5)
The approach for the interviews in the six supply chains includes semi-structured personal interviews to gather information in order to choose questionnaire items (exploratory research), more structured personal interviews to gather information for the domains under research (descriptive research), group interviews (focus groups) with key players in each supply chain to make an in-depth analysis utilizing the findings of the structured personal interviews (confirmatory research).
IELab NTUA is responsible for Task 2.3: GAP Analysis of Systems Used to Combat Food Fraud and the deliverable D2.3: Guidelines for capitalizing on systemic enablers and overcoming systemic barriers to implementation of authenticity and traceability solutions in food systems.
Outcomes will be shared by the end of September.

Great to see WP2 moving forward—nice work by all partners on developing the questionnaires and methodology. Looking forward to the interview findings across the six supply chains.
Checking the latest news has become easier with online reading, but the number of updates can sometimes feel overwhelming. My uncle Manoj prefers focusing on a few topics that matter to him instead of opening every trending story. That approach makes sense because readers can spend more time understanding each report. A well-organised news page can support this habit by separating categories and presenting headlines clearly, while readers should still check publication times to avoid confusing older stories with fresh developments.
Your perspective on this topic is both unique and enlightening. I appreciate the depth of research and clarity in your writing. fnaf
Thank you for the insightful update on WATSON’s progress in Work Package 2! The strategies outlined for enhancing stunt bike stability are particularly fascinating. How do you envision these developments impacting future projects 'Stunt Bike Extreme'?
I normally prefer games that let me get started without too much setup, and this one was pretty easy in that regard. The layout is clean and the main sections are understandable. I spent some time checking the different games and found the overall navigation convenient. Nothing felt overly complicated, which made the experience more enjoyable for me.
