Future 50 Foods
The Future 50 Foods Report by Knorr, WWF-UK and Dr. Adam Drewnowski provides a tangible solution to decrease the environmental impact of our food while increasing the nutritional value of our meals. It outlines food system issues and identifies 50 of the foods we should eat more of to help improve the health of people and the planet. The ambition is to make three shifts in the foods grown and eaten globally: more vegetables, plant-based in place of animal-based protein sources, and more variety in grains and cereals. The Future 50 Foods are a wide variety of vegetables, plant-based proteins, grains and cereals.
‘Simple swaps in everyday meals to Future 50 Foods that re more nutritious and take less resources make a big impact on our health and that of the planet. This is what we call ‘Eat for Good’. – Dorothy Shaver, Global Sustainability Lead, Knorr at Unilever
Good Food For All
Shifting from a technical discussion to a focus on food, Good Food For All speaks to the breadth of Goal 2 – from biodiversity to malnutrition in all its forms to sustainable agriculture – and a wider food experience touching on all SDGs. Creating a fresh new way of speaking about opportunities and challenges of agriculture, nutrition and food, Good Food For All mobilises the public and garners investment across multiple sectors. Through 8 pillars, the narrative builds bridges to other conversations: gender, climate and conflict. With ‘For All’ the narrative places equity at the centre of the conversation, creating an opportunity for us to accelerate SDG action.
