Life Climate Smart Chefs

LIFE CLIMATE SMART CHEF

The Life Climate Smart Chefs project aims to contribute to the development and implementation of the EU Climate Policy and the Farm to Fork (F2F) Strategy by actively involving European chefs as promoters of low emission, nutritious and affordable diets that reduce environmental impacts, improve public health and tackle food waste.

The project intends to provide chefs with the knowledge and tools to generate change in recipe design, menu planning and communication with customers, fostering awareness on climate and environmental issues.
In addition, the project promotes a mainstream debate on food as a key factor for climate change mitigation.

Key project activities include:

  • The implementation of a high-level training course for chefs.
  • The development of a digital tool to design climate smart menus.
  • The creation of an Award dedicated to climate smart chefs and local initiatives promoting sustainable diets.
  • The creation of an EU Network of chef associations
  • The implementation of the Life Climate Smart Chefs Vision 2030, a strategic paper aimed at providing policy recommendations and supporting EU Climate Policy.
