Organization
Chef Action Network (CAN) is a non-profit organization that mobilizes chefs and food industry leaders to tackle the urgent challenges of public health, sustainable agriculture and food security. CAN leverages the power and influence of chefs to promote healthier, fairer and more sustainable food systems. Originally founded in 2015 by Chef Michel Nischan and Eric Kessler of Arabella Philanthropic Advisors, it is now a project of the James Beard Foundation.
We highlight the concrete, innovative actions taken by chefs. From sustainable agriculture to meal distribution, from the fight against food waste to social inclusion, discover the projects that are positively transforming our societies. Delve into the details of each initiative, exploring partnerships, results achieved and challenges overcome. Whether you’re a catering professional, a food lover or simply passionate about change, these projects will provide you with the inspiration and information you need to make your own commitment.
