Mobilizing finance for corporate social impact: a primer for chief financial officersGeneva, 12 June, 2018: The World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) has developed a comprehensive research piece around the future of food. The research explores the pressures, trends and influences determining how people are experiencing their food today and forms the basis for a Future of Food “Lighthouse”, a simple, shared, inspiring vision of a future of food that leads to a happier, healthier (and more sustainable) lifestyle. The Lighthouse highlights people’s needs and wants from their lifestyles (today, tomorrow, in five years, in 15 years), and identifies spaces in which innovation needs to occur to be able to deliver this vision. It is designed to help companies uncover new opportunities to offer people healthier, more appealing and sustainable nutrition. According to Peter Bakker, WBCSD President and CEO: “Creating a sustainable world – one where 9 billion people can live well, within planetary boundaries – won’t be achieved through technology alone. It is going to involve changing the way we live. And that’s a good thing – human history is an endless journey of change for the better. Forward-looking companies are exploring how we can make sustainable living both possible and desirable, creating solutions in line with people’s aspirations. Together, we’re seeking to understand how we can leverage what is already technologically possible to make human life better, rather than bigger. We believe that sketching out a vision of a different future is the first step to creating a different path for all to follow.” This Future of Food Lighthouse will drive rich conversations among companies’ R&D, Innovation, Insights, Marketing, Brand Strategy and Public Affairs functions. The Lighthouse is part of WBCSD’s work in the area of Sustainable Lifestyles, which seeks to understand the world that we need to create — technically, practically and emotionally — to enable and inspire more sustainable lifestyles. Our Sustainable Lifestyles work supports and complements the WBCSD Food, Land and Water program, especially the Food Reform for Sustainability and Health (FReSH) project, that has brought together a coalition of leading companies to tackle the challenges within the food system, from fork to farm. The unique approach of the Lifestyles work, is to look at food-related challenges using the individual, rather than the system, as the starting point. This provides companies with a complementary view of the food landscape that is both positive and customer-centric. More information:
