Om arbeidsgiver
EAT is a global, non-profit organization dedicated to transforming our global food system through sound science, impatient disruption and novel partnerships. EAT work for a future where healthy and sustainable food is affordable, accessible, and attractive to all. Visit eatforum.org for more.
The food we eat, how we produce and waste it, is the main cause behind mass extinction and up to a third of greenhouse gas emissions. Bad diets cause almost twenty percent of all global deaths. EAT’s mission is to fix this.
Since its inception in 2014, EAT has had an outsized impact on the global narrative on food, health and the environment through its groundbreaking scientific work and ability to tear down silos between sectors. The influential EAT-Lancet report was a historic moment, outlining the first scientific targets for a healthier and more sustainable food system. EAT and partners are currently working on two major scientific projects – the Blue Food Assessment to be launched this fall, and the Food Systems Economic Commissions which will be launched in 2023.
2021 is looking to be a historic year for food, culminating with the UN Food Systems Summit in October, where EAT is leading the action track on shifting to sustainable consumption.
