Chefs together, can change the world!
Earlier this year, the Chefs’ Manifesto, together with several partner networks, conducted a survey titled, ‘Chefs’ Pledge’. The intent was to learn from participants, what the top practical actions are that chefs can take to actively engage in transforming food systems, to ensure good food for all. Based on the Chefs’ Manifesto Thematic Areas, the aim was to further narrow and focus the SDG roadmap for chefs.
Drum roll please… the results are in!
The survey was conducted from late February through to May, inviting participants via social media, direct email, through our partner networks and various campaigns.
For each of the Chefs’ Manifesto 8 Thematic Areas, participants were asked to rank in order which action, taken from the Chefs’ Manifesto Action Plan, would enact the most change for food systems transformation once implemented. The following is an analysis of the results.
The results show the actions that received the highest percentage of number one ranked votes. A further, more detailed analysis of all the ranked actionable outcome will be available via PDF soon.
(Please note, any discrepancy in the percentage figures is accounted for by respondents who may have skipped a question.)
