In today’s food sector, resilience means more than surviving shocks, it means adapting to thrive amid climate pressures, shifting consumer demand and evolving regulation.
The 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission is an important scientific contribution to advancing global food systems transformation and a valuable reference point to help businesses enhance resilience, ensure stability, and remain competitive in a changing market. Achieving this transition must have people at its heart — a principle WBCSD has long championed through our People Action work, our focus on livelihoods, and our engagement with agriculture and food value chains.
WBCSD provides forward-looking companies with the tools, insights, and platforms they need to translate global scientific developments into actionable business strategies.
Why the 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission matters to us
WBCSD is the leading community of global businesses making sustainability performance a key driver for competitiveness. For food companies, this means anticipating risks, strengthening operations and supply chains, and helping to shape food systems that are robust, adaptable, and sustainable – for people, planet and long-term business success.
With the launch of the 2019 EL, WBCSD started its Healthy & Sustainable Diets workstream. We provide guidance for food companies, such as our Ag & Food Roadmap, which includes a healthy & sustainable diets chapter, and convene collective initiatives to build resilience across the food value chain, such as our alignment on Regenerative Agriculture Metrics global framwork or the playbook for plant-rich diets.
WBCSD provides a platform for forward-thinking companies for aligning on key metrics, supporting businesses with implementation guidance, and collaborate on efforts for a more enabling environment towards a healthy, sustainable and equitable food system.
