The first step in any engagement is to help you accurately identify and define the problem you are trying to solve using a systems-thinking approach.

We want to understand the social, economic, and environmental dynamics that affect people who work in food systems. This approach helps us stay grounded in empathy and context while revealing hidden leverage points for meaningful change

A Focus on Food

A Focus on Food


We focus on food because food connects us all. We work across supply chains on land and at sea, addressing challenges like food waste and driving solutions that make food systems more resilient. 


Viewing the world through food systems reveals the interconnectedness of people, resources, and activities involved from farms and fisheries to markets and meals.


Transforming food systems isn’t just about feeding people — it’s about building a more equitable, and sustainable world. 


Food is at the center of the world’s most pressing challenges: climate change, food security, economic resilience, and public health.​
