The challenges in our food system

Problem analysisProgrammes
The food environment is very decisive for the demand side of our food system. The food environment, in turn, is shaped primarily by food retailers and advertisers.
Our programmes aim to help leverage the power of food retail, promotion and advertising to stimulate a healthy, sustainable, fair and animal-friendly food system
