why a food focused think tank ?
The contemporary food system is both the cause and consequence of today's major challenges. Placing food at the center of the debate in critical, collaborative, creative and communicative ways allows for a current, high-impact look at systemic transformation - what we eat changes the world, and this is our biggest challenge and at the same time our greatest opportunity.
global sindemics
Obesity, malnutrition and climate change are growing interconnected and with consequences at various scales and in all territories.

transversality and intersectoriality
of the food system impacts (social, cultural and environmental flows) - all inseparable and challenging.
