Food that looks after us and the planet
Sustainable food
We accelerate the transition to fair and sustainable food systems, guaranteeing healthy food for all, respectful of people and ecosystems, and creating strong links between production, citizenship and territories.
We believe food plays a crucial role in supporting societies and their development. Each product we cultivate, share, prepare or consume reflects the relationship we have with nature and the people around us. If that relationship breaks, our health and the balance of ecosystems are also affected. Strengthening it paves the way to a fairer, more conscious, and united society.
Programs in action
Strategic guidelines for sustainable food
We contribute to the revitalisation of the agricultural sector by transitioning to agroecological practices and highlighting their importance.
- Our commitment is manifested through two lines of action:
- Supporting the integration of new generations of farmers into agroecology with expert guidance,
- And accelerating transition in farms through improved cultivation methods and knowledge-sharing networks among agricultural professionals.
We support territories and economic actors in building territorialised, resilient and sustainable food systems.
- We reinforce the dynamics linking production, processing and consumption within each territory,
- Fostering greater cohesion and value in local food systems.
- We enhance the operational capacity of the territorially rooted agri-food industry and support its scaling up.
We support the transformation of food environments to ensure that healthy and sustainable eating is the most accessible, available, affordable, enjoyable, and promoted.
- To accomplish this, we activate learning spaces that foster, spread, and reinforce sustainable eating habits in restaurants, collective and school canteens, neighbourhoods, and community kitchens.
- We support actors with the ability to transform the system (restaurants, local businesses, school canteens, community kitchens, healthcare sector, and authorities) in their transition towards sustainable consumption models.
- And we activate citizen mobilisation as a catalyst for change through experimental dynamics that test solutions and pave the way for new governance models linked to food systems.
We promote the generation of knowledge on food systems and integrate sustainable food into contemporary narratives and regulatory frameworks.
- We enhance the visibility and spread of scientific knowledge, practices, and ideas on sustainable food;
- We weave networks and collaborations among researchers, policy makers, and actors in the field
- To turn evidence into decisions and projects,
Experiences with an impact
Relevant sustainable food projects, backed by strong evidence and valuable insights for replication.
In France and Spain, we recognize that sustainable agriculture and food systems must be democratic, based on solidarity, and agroecological. Every product we grow, share, or prepare reflects our relationship with nature and the people around us. If this relationship breaks down, our health, social cohesion, and the balance of ecosystems will deteriorate. If it grows stronger, we open new paths toward a more just, conscious, and humane society.
