SystemShifters is a pioneering programme that brings together senior leaders from across the food system to become stronger agents of change.
Through open, honest conversations with a wide range of stakeholders, SystemShifters explore what keeps the current system in place — and how to create room to manoeuvre within it.
Together, we identify and pull the levers that can trigger a positive tipping point in the food system.
By joining SystemShifters, you’ll experience the real-world complexity of taking leadership — alongside others — beyond the usual boundaries of your role or organisation. The programme is explorative and action-driven by design. It offers a unique opportunity to practice systems leadership, deepen essential skills like influence and negotiation, and co-create interventions that help shift our food system towards healthier, more sustainable consumption.
"This is where I hear the voices that challenge my thinking and inspire new possibilities. SystemShifters creates the space to step outside our roles,
connect deeply, and unlock the bold ideas we need to truly pull the
levers for change."
