Expert Panel “Future of Food Switzerland”

In 2015, Switzerland committed to helping the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) be achieved by 2030.

The Swiss food system offers great potential for improvements in sustainability.

A broad-based scientific panel is now developing a basis for discussion and recommendations for action.

The expert panel “Future of Food Switzerland” – in which the IFNC Executive Director Christian Schwab is participating – was set up at the initiative of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network Switzerland (SDSN), a UN initiative for a scientifically grounded implementation of the global goals.

The food you buy makes the difference

The members of the new expert group “Future of Food Switzerland” are compiling scientific findings to provide a basis for policy-makers and public discussions. And they are doing so with a much-needed general view of the food system in mind.

The expert panel unites a broad spectrum of perspectives and disciplines. That is why it is a fast, reliable and effective tool for supporting necessary changes.
