About

The University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) is a UK university with a strong focus on applied, interdisciplinary research, innovation and collaboration to address real-world challenges. Its research spans health and life sciences, engineering, biotechnology, environmental sustainability, digital technologies, business and the social sciences, with a strong emphasis on translating research into practical solutions that benefit industry, society and the environment.

UWE Bristol has established research expertise relevant to Horizon Europe Cluster 6, including sustainable agri-food systems, food safety and food processing, environmental resilience, biodiversity, biotechnology, resource efficiency and the circular bioeconomy. The university works closely with academic institutions, industry, public-sector organisations and other stakeholders to develop innovative solutions to complex societal and environmental challenges.

A key centre supporting research and innovation in these areas is the Centre for Sustainable Agri-Food & Environment (SAFE). SAFE brings together researchers from different disciplines to address interconnected challenges in sustainable food production, food safety, biodiversity, climate change and environmental resilience. The Centre promotes interdisciplinary research, collaborative innovation and partnerships with industry and external stakeholders to develop practical solutions supporting more sustainable, resilient and environmentally responsible food systems.

SAFE's research capabilities and interests span food microbiology and food safety, innovative and sustainable food processing technologies, antimicrobial interventions, agri-food innovation, resource-efficient production systems, biodiversity conservation and environmental sustainability. The Centre provides a collaborative environment for connecting expertise across food science, biotechnology, agriculture, engineering and environmental sciences, with a strong emphasis on translating research into real-world applications.

Through SAFE and its wider research community, UWE Bristol is keen to expand its European research partnerships and contribute to ambitious, multidisciplinary Horizon Europe projects. We welcome opportunities to work with universities, research organisations, industry and other stakeholders to address shared challenges in sustainable agri-food systems, food safety, circular bioeconomy and environmental resilience.
