Geraldine leads Forum for the Future’s work on food system transition in UK/Europe, overseeing one-to-one partnerships with food-related organisations, as well as multi-stakeholder collaborations on specific food system challenges. She helps businesses (from established multinationals to innovator brands), as well as non-profits, government agencies and others, to understand their role and opportunities in building a better food system - to establish and raise their ambitions, develop their strategies for action, and prepare for and shape the future of food and sustainable nutrition. Her experience stretches from agriculture to retail, brands and foodservice. She is also a co-founder and trustee of Flavour School, a children’s sensory food education charity, and she sits on the board of Growing Communities, a community-based, sustainable food social enterprise in London, UK. Geraldine started off with an MA Understanding and Securing Human Rights (University of London) and a BSc Anthropology, University College London. Formative experiences include working for French Fairtrade organic food start-up Alter Eco, and 17 years of evolving roles and projects with Forum for the Future.
