The EAT-Lancet Commission Launch in Oslo 

Venue: The Aula, University of Oslo, Karl Johans Gate 47
Date: Thursday, January 17, 2019

Can we feed a future population of 10 billion people a healthy diet within planetary boundaries? 

To answer this question, EAT gathered 37 of the planet’s foremost experts who, for the first time ever, propose scientific targets for what constitutes both a healthy diet and a sustainable food system.  

We are thrilled to finally launch the EAT-Lancet Commission on Food, Planet, Health. 

The attendees will be guided through the report by two scientific superstars – Prof. Johan Rockström (Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and Stockholm Resilience Center) and Prof.Walter Willett (Harvard University), co-chairs of the Commission. 

Following the presentation, Dr. Richard Horton, the Editor-in-Chief of The Lancet, will moderate a conversation and deep-dive into the key findings.

Dr. Gunhild A. Stordalen, EAT’s founder and executive chair, will share her vision on a global dugnad for a better food future. 

The event will be live-streamed on our website and Facebook page. The link will be available on the day of the event.
