Overcoming Perceived Difficulties: Unleashing the Power of Diet Change for a Sustainable Future

🥦🍏 The perception of diet change as something that’s ‘too difficult’ has prevented progress on this vital agenda. But our diets are changing all the time in response to our food environments.

🍴 Public Food Procurement
🥘 Food Offer and Marketing
🔍 Transparency
🚜 Investment in Sustainable Production
