Strategic Plan
The "Menus of Change" initiative, a collaborative effort by The Culinary Institute of America and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, is founded on 24 principles for healthy and sustainable menus, serving as a roadmap for the food industry. This initiative aims to drive a "plant forward" shift towards nutritious, environmentally sustainable, and socially responsible food choices. It seeks to address critical global challenges such as climate change, public health crises, and food waste by translating nutrition science into practical culinary strategies, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and advocating for policy changes, with a strong emphasis on education and engagement.
