Description

Introduction Eat4Change is a WWF-led, international project co-funded by the European Union, pushing for a shift toward more sustainable diets and food production practices. Eat4Change strives to engage citizens, and particularly the youth (15-35 year olds), to take an active role in society and support a shift towards more plant-based diets for the wellbeing of people and the planet. In the scope of this project, the WWF-UK and WWF-European Policy Office are currently seeking support from a consulting company or research institute to perform an explorative study that will shed new light on how government policies and actions by other major economic actors, notably investors and retailers, could be affecting food prices and thus mitigating or contributing to the rising cost of living.
