Partner with us for research

Are you a research institution needing support with your work or a grant?

Academic research in diet and nutrition with a public health focus is vital for improving population health, guiding policy, reducing health disparities, preventing disease, and translating scientific knowledge into actionable solutions that benefit society.

For those working to address pressing issues such as obesity, diabetes, inadequate nutrient intakes and climate friendly food choices, our role at the Foundation plays an important role in ensuring that research achieves impact and policy relevance. We help tell the story of why the research matters and what it aims to change. We believe that connectivity drives change. By bringing together research stakeholders and translating nutrition science for public good, we aim to maximise the reach, understanding and real-world impact of your work.
