About

The Global Food Research Program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is a project of the Carolina Population Center. Our team collaborates with diverse partners around the world to carefully evaluate food and nutrition policies and to develop in-depth, longitudinal research on large-scale efforts to prevent and reduce obesity and other nutrition-related diseases. Our mission is to provide the academic community, policymakers, and industry with rigorous and innovative methods to measure the influence of industry (factory-to-fork dynamics) on food supply trends across the globe. Ultimately, our work is aimed at reducing diet-related disparities in health and preventing obesity and other diet-related diseases by contributing to the creation of a more healthful food system and food environment.
