Partner with us for research
Are you a research institution needing support with your work or a grant?
Academic research in diet and nutrition that has a public health impact is essential for improving population health, guiding policy, reducing health disparities, preventing disease, and translating scientific knowledge into actionable solutions for the benefit of society as a whole.
For those working towards finding solutions to issues such as obesity, diabetes, and poor nutrient intakes and climate friendly food choices etc, our role at the Foundation is to help make sure the research has impact and policy relevance. We want to help tell the story of why we should care about the research and what it is trying to change. We believe that connectivity powers change. We want to help connect research stakeholders and translate nutrition for public good.
We can support researchers in helping their work reach its full potential. Read on to find out how!
Our Role
Working with academia, industry, public sector, third sector, national and international partners – we build connections and engage with stakeholders to help to embed nutrition research and evidence-led innovation for health.
We can work with you to create a dissemination package that can drive impact and reach. Our approach considers the needs of the target group, the most appropriate networks and media channels, and how to collaborate effectively for the greatest impact.
Our packages start at £10,000 – let's work together for the public good!
