EUFIC

EUFIC, the European Food Information Council, is a consumer-oriented non-profit organisation founded to make the science behind food and health more accessible and easier to understand among the public. It creates science-based content to empower and facilitate the adoption of healthier and more sustainable diets and lifestyles among European citizens, organised around four long-term goals: building food and health science literacy and promoting evidence-based decision-making; facilitating the healthy and sustainable diet shift; supporting the prevention of diet- and lifestyle-related non-communicable diseases; and empowering food waste reduction at the consumption level. Its team includes scientists and communicators, and it publishes articles, a newsroom, and Food Facts summaries addressing misrepresented information about food and health in the media.
