Healthier Lives Through Food

We will make a material difference to quality of life by enabling more consumers to have better choices through access to affordable, healthier food products and actionable information.

Nutritious, diverse food choices can benefit people and planet, but challenges in affordability, profitability and lack of awareness means unhealthy food products are often favoured by both industry and consumers. To increase the uptake of balanced, sustainable and healthy diets, we need greater levels of awareness about the relationship between nutrition and health, increased support for innovative solutions for affordable products, and policy interventions that prioritise soil health, nutrition and food education.
