In a bold move toward a more sustainable and resilient agri-food future, the Transition Action Plans (TAPs) for New Genomic Techniques (NGTs) have been officially launched. These plans serve as practical roadmaps to accelerate the adoption of innovative biotechnologies across the EU and beyond.

TAPs are at the heart of an inclusive transition strategy designed to unlock the potential of NGTs, a new generation of genetic techniques that promise to make agriculture more climate-resilient, resource-efficient, and productive.

Each of the six TAPs is tailored to a key stakeholder group: policymakers, researchers, farmers, industry representatives, civil society, and the general public. The roadmaps lay out concrete, measurable actions to build awareness, foster education, encourage collaboration, and strengthen communication around NGTs.

The initiative encourages collective engagement and aims to create a more informed, connected, and empowered community around genomic innovation in food and biotechnology. Whether it’s guiding regulatory dialogue, training scientists, or informing the public, the TAPs are designed to ensure no stakeholder is left behind in the NGT transition.

Stakeholders across sectors are now invited to explore the TAPs and join the journey toward a smarter, more sustainable future.
